Social Media Pride Week for First-Gen Graduate Students

Monday, November 4 to Friday, November 8, 2019
UW Bothell, Seattle, Tacoma campuses

All UW first-generation grad students across tri-campus are invited to participate in social media pride week!

A first-gen graduate student is in the first generation of their family to earn a Bachelor’s degree—and is now working towards a graduate degree.

Share your pride in a live poll:

• Respond to the ‘show your pride’ poll:

  • Please note: The poll opens at 8 am on Monday, November 4 and will close at midnight on Friday, November 8.
• Social media:
  • On social media, share images from your graduate student experience share why you are proud to be a first-gen graduate student and use #UWFirstGenGrads and #CelebrateFirstGen from Monday, November 4 to Friday, November 8.
