Resources for Faculty & Staff

Faculty and staff have an important role in the success of first-generation college students, and everyone on campus can be part of our campus-wide efforts to better support first-gen students. Not sure how to do this or what your role is? Consider engaing in a professional development opportunity, learn about strategies you can utilize, both in and outside of the classroom, to make a difference for first-gen students on the UI campus, or browse our extensive compilation of first-gen related research and best practices

Contact us for more information on first-gen students at the University of Iowa, the role that faculty and staff have in first-generation students' success, or to recommend resources to be considered for inclusion on this site.
