Take a picture at 12:30pm on the steps of Christopher Newport Hall (facing the great lawn) with fellow first generation students, faculty, and staff

Join for a reception afterward between 12:45-2pm for refreshments to celebrate the accomplishments of first-generation CNU students, faculty, and staff! 

You're considered a first-generation college student if neither your parent(s) nor guardian(s) graduated with a four-year degree from an institution in the United States. You are not alone and we want to celebrate your accomplishments! 

Let us know you are coming HERE!
