From Moment to Movement
More than 300 students from 34 institutions came to Princeton for the fifth 1vyG. Panels and workshops examined first-generation and lower-income identity across three settings—campus, hometown, and professional life—and asked how personal experience could become community leadership.
A linked conference brought 150 administrators from 40 institutions to campus. Its overlap with 1vyG created a rare exchange between the people living institutional gaps and those responsible for addressing them, while a conversation with Jessica Brown, Viet Nguyen, and Myesha Jemison kept the agenda grounded in books, food insecurity, mental health, burnout, and mentorship.
