About 40 percent of Simpson students are in the first generation of their families to attend college — meaning neither of their parents completed a four-year degree. That can present unique challenges for first-generation students who are learning to navigate not just the college classroom, but the whole culture of undergraduate life. In this week's episode, Simpson's Marzia Corni-Benson, Stephanie Neve and Barb Ramos talk about best practices in helping first-generation students survive and thrive in the college environment.
