Description
The Pandemic of 2020 pushed all educational institutions online. As we continue our post-pandemic recovery, universities are increasingly initiating intentional efforts to bring students back to campus and to reengage with them in meaningful ways. But what happens to those students who were already online? What about the First Generation, nontraditional, and marginalized students who, perhaps for the first time, found a space in higher ed where they felt welcomed and could thrive? As our institutions transition back to an on-campus model, we must remain cognizant of how we are engaging with fully online First Generation, nontraditional, and marginalized students. Highlighting specific examples of strategies implemented by individual faculty, student organizations, colleges, and across our university, this session will provide insight for those seeking inspiration for supporting First Gen students in fully online spaces.
