Faculty professional development workshop: Teaching and supporting first-generation students in high impact practices.

The Office of First-Generation Initiatives is partnering with the Offices of Undergraduate Research, Study Abroad, Service Learning and A&S Career Development to host a conversation with faculty about ways that high-impact practices can be discussed, highlighted, or integrated into their courses and curriculum. Research shows that integrating these activities into classroom activities increases accessibility to many populations of students.
