The CARE Center and Student Success will host a week-long national celebration for First Generation Students November 7th-10th. A First-Generation student is an individual whose parents did not complete a 4-year college degree. Many NTCC students are the first in their family to attend college and this is a special week to support and celebrate them!

The week will jump-start activities with a lunch and learn on Monday. This activity includes the entire campus, faculty, staff, and students for an open discussion about coming together and sharing perspectives about improving our supportive services on campus.

Please join us in the next week's activities!
