Praising God for the fact that I am officially a FIRST GENERATION graduate of the University of Nebraska. #GoBigRedForever 🎓☝🏽
@UNLincoln @UNLCommDept @UNLSOC @Huskers
A sense of belonging is a powerful thing in the campus community AND in the classroom. Let's keep this at the forefront of our minds as we prepare to welcome a new batch of students to campus.
"It's OK to let go of a bit of content to make space for helping students feel more included and connected to the discipline."

Welcome to Nebraska @kelleymwick !!
I made it! I’m a non-traditional student: first gen, graduated 2019 at 34, told I wasn’t “college material”. Five days, seven states, and 2,200 miles from CA to NE brought me to my new home at @UNLincoln to pursue my MA/PhD in Dev Psych. #phdchat #academictwitter #gradschool #unl
We are honored and excited for @UNLincoln first gen students, faculty, and staff!

A first gen success story!
The Bd of Regents made history today by naming Exec VP & Provost Susan Fritz, PhD, as interim-prez elect. Fritz - an NE native, 1st-gen college student, NU alum & faculty member - will be the first woman to lead NU since the system was created 51 yrs ago. bit.ly/2EJvrKd
