Testimonials
The chronicles of First Gens: Zikra Naz, Vera Tagtaa, Rebecca Nagy Miller, and Nasir Terry.
My message to fellow first-gen students is to get comfortable being uncomfortable. It's needed for growth but also for the continued strength that will be needed to handle the pressures that come with being a first-gen student. Embrace them all!
"What I really learned is that if you really want to succeed and you take your education seriously and you take yourself
seriously, people around you really want to help and support you and that is what I got out of Stockton the most. I learned that it's okay to ask for help and people have answers for you."
Olivia Norton, First Gen Alumna '19
