Listen "Pioneer, Problem-Solver, and Purposeful--The First-Generation Student Experience"
Episode Synopsis
About 18% of undergraduate students at Virginia Tech are first-generation college students. A first-generation college student is defined as a student in which neither one of their parents nor their guardian earned a bachelor’s degree at a four-year college or university. This very special episode of Engineering Visibility was created by five very talented students from Dr. Chelsea Lyles, Honors Service Learning class. This episode features four special guests: Mrs. Tamara Cherry Clark, the Assistant Dean of Students for First Generation Student Support, and three first-generation students from the ECE department sharing their experience of being a first-generation student.
