FSC Hosts Fourth Annual Festivities Honoring First-Generation College Students.
Farmingdale State College (FSC) was proud to recently host its fourth annual First-Generation College Student Celebration, a week of festivities bringing together FSC’s campus community to honor the College’s many first-generation students. Currently, 30% of FSC students are the first-generation to attend college.
The celebration began with a kick-off event in the Campus Center Ballroom, which included a brief program, refreshments, and raffles. At First-Gen Night of Support, FSC Residence Life welcomed students to an interactive event that promoted student connections and well-being. The fun-filled evening included valuable exchanges, activities, and free resources. At Friends & Firsts, students enjoyed engaging discussions, peer connections, and a meaningful friendship bracelet exchange. The week concluded with a Tri-Alpha Honor Society information session in Gleeson Hall.
