First-Generation Faculty and Staff
What is First-Generation to College?
You are considered a first-generation college student (or FGC) if neither parent/guardian has a four-year college degree. You are still considered first-generation even if a sibling has attended college.
This list includes Macalester members of faculty and staff who identify as first-generation to college. If you would like to be included, please submit this form, or contact lsc@macalester.edu with any questions.
