We are looking to build community among faculty in our DOM who identify as First-Generation College Graduates (First Gen, first generation in family to go to college).

This initiative is an extension of the work that is already happening at UCLA and DGSOM First Gen. We have many ideas on how to empower DOM First Gen, and that includes visibility and building our own First Gen Faculty community here in our own department. To that end, we are building a listserv of all DOM faculty who identify as First Gen. If you do self-ID as First Gen, please fill out this quick survey.
