Celebrating our first-generation students
Today is national First-Generation College Celebration Day. Nearly half of our students are the first in their families to go to college, and many of our staff and faculty are similarly first-gen. I am the second generation in my family to go to college, but as the 18th president of Goshen College, I am the first president who is not first generation. Goshen has a long history of serving and being led by first-gen scholars.
