First-generation college students (FGCS) are those who are the first in their families to attend higher education. They often face unique challenges and barriers, such as academic preparation, financial stress, cultural adjustment, and lack of social capital. Creating an inclusive campus environment for FGCS is not only a matter of equity and access, but also a way to enrich the learning and diversity of the entire academic community. Here are some strategies that can help foster a sense of belonging and support for FGCS.

1 Identify and reach out

One of the first steps is to identify who are the FGCS on your campus and how to connect with them. You can use surveys, applications, or other data sources to find out who they are and what their needs and interests are. You can also create a dedicated website, newsletter, or social media platform to share information, resources, and opportunities for FGCS. You can also invite them to orientation sessions, workshops, or events that are designed to welcome and engage them.

Encouragez-les à partager leurs histoires et leurs traditions à travers des activités artistiques, des festivals culinaires et des spectacles culturels. Créez un environnement où la diversité est célébrée et où chaque étudiant se sent inclus et valorisé pour sa contribution unique à la communauté universitaire.

2 Provide academic and financial assistance

FGCS may need extra guidance and assistance to navigate the academic and financial aspects of college life. You can offer them academic advising, tutoring, mentoring, or peer support programs that can help them with their coursework, study skills, and career goals. You can also provide them with financial aid, scholarships, or emergency funds that can ease their financial burden and stress. You can also educate them about the available resources and services on campus and how to access them.

3 Celebrate and value their diversity

FGCS bring diverse perspectives, experiences, and cultures to the campus. You can celebrate and value their diversity by creating a respectful and inclusive culture that recognizes and appreciates their contributions. You can also encourage them to participate in clubs, organizations, or activities that reflect their identities and interests. You can also provide them with opportunities to learn from and interact with other students, faculty, and staff who share or differ from their backgrounds.

4 Empower and advocate for them

FGCS may face stereotypes, biases, or discrimination that can undermine their confidence and sense of belonging. You can empower and advocate for them by creating a safe and supportive environment that promotes their well-being and success. You can also provide them with leadership development, civic engagement, or research opportunities that can enhance their skills and abilities. You can also involve them in decision-making and policy-making processes that affect their campus experience.

5 Collaborate and partner with others

Creating an inclusive campus environment for FGCS is not a solo effort. You can collaborate and partner with others who share your vision and mission. You can work with other departments, offices, or units on campus that serve or support FGCS. You can also partner with external organizations, such as community groups, alumni associations, or employers, that can provide additional resources, networks, or opportunities for FGCS. You can also seek feedback and input from FGCS themselves to improve your programs and services.
