Dear Scripps Community,
We hope you enjoyed a wonderful winter break and have adjusted well into the full swing of the spring semester. We are particularly eager to distribute the February 2016 Newsletter of the First-Generation @ Scripps program. This issue features highlights of our 2nd annual First-Gen student retreat that took place on February 5-6, 2016.
The theme of this year’s retreat was Identity, Narrative, Inclusivity. Throughout the retreat, students explored understanding their own identities in order to build solidarity within a diverse community. The insights gleaned from the various workshop sessions are reflected in the zines pages that students produced.
Enjoy!
Sincerely,
The First-Gen Team
Sonia De La Torre, Program Coordinator
Prof. Mary Hatcher-Skeers, Faculty Liaison
