While everyone is anticipating the latest comebacks and releases, I'm out here digging for 1st Gen K-Pop gold 🪙 @jemmesedi and I were talking about "Dreams Come True" which was covered by aespa in 2022. He enlightened me that this song was previously performed by SES in the late 90's. I had to look up that version and of course it's amazing. Such a hooky song, with great vocals and that awesome synth line.

To all who remember the real struggles and near-misses of earning a degree, as #firstgen, a gender minority of color, or striving to live in the very city you hope to work in.

Please consider supporting today's students, if able, by donating to Women of Color Alliance's Luminary Scholarship by 3/1: https://givebutter.com/the-woca-luminary-scholarship-nnlptx

Ich hatte aber früher nie den Berufswunsch „Wissenschaftlerin“. Ich bin #firstgen Akademikerin und Wissenschaft als Job stand bei mir anfangs gar nicht auf der Liste der möglichen Karrierewege.

This can be a great strategy to retool for your future--especially if you live in a state like New Mexico that takes educating a large proportion of #FirstGen college attendees as a serious priority, with in-state tuition almost A THIRD OF this article's stated average--which can often be reduced TO ZERO through state grants & financial assistance specifically aimed at helping these populations.

At these states' flagship institutions--like The University of New Mexico--the realities the article mentions of juggling work ,school, and home life are mitigated through widespread availability of classes online--but still taught by the same faculty you'd have on campus--and timed to fit your schedule. And through a campus culture and a faculty that honors the struggles you make, to make a better future.

Whether you're a new aspiring #undergraduate or an experienced professional with ANY technical degree contemplating a return to #GradSchool--like countless Soldiers I've mentored in the four decades since my OWN military career began--accredited programs like UNM Organization, Information & Learning Sciences (OILS), with degree & certificates from the bachelors to the Ph.D., can equip you with the evidence-based tools & methods at the intersection of recruiting, training, HR, and analytics, to design, lead, and evaluate the workforce readiness programs for your current organization, or charting an entirely new path.

What are you waiting for...?

Philippines unlikely to add new LNG terminal near-term on excess capacity

Both of my parents never went to college and they both graduated with GEDs at different points in their life.

I'm a first gen college grad and trying to learn about investing, a master's degree, and be a teacher.

FirstGen Success Stories: Studierende berichten über ihren Weg 🎥
In Deutschland hängt der Bildungsweg oft von der sozialen Herkunft ab – und genau hier setzt das Projekt „FirstGen Success Stories“ der Fakultät 4 der #UniStuttgart an.
Studierende, die als Erste in ihrer Familie studieren (abgekürzt FirstGens), erzählen in einem Video von ihren Herausforderungen, aber geben auch Tipps an andere FirstGens.
➡ Hier das ganze Video anschauen: https://youtu.be/9uHUMAfdceI 📺

Aber ich habe auch ein Grund endlich mal alle Teile nachzuholen die ich noch nie gespielt habe. Und darauf freue ich mich besonders.

Starten tue ich aktuell mit einen Teil von #PokemonX um die Tauschfunktion freizuschalten mit den alten #VirtualConsole spielen.

Um mir legitime #FirstGen #Pokemons von Gen1 über Gen6 zu #PokemonBank und schließlich #PokemonHome transferieren zu können.

“I wish that I could say that it was all downhill from there, but it was not. My last 3 semesters have been the most challenging of my math journey. That’s when I took Calculus 3 and Differential Equations. At the same time, I changed jobs and experienced significant changes in my personal life. For a time, I considered quitting, but I never let my struggles win. After 5 years, I am about to graduate from Century College and continue my mathematical journey at a four-year university. I know I will struggle in the future, but my experience so far has shown that I am tenacious and can tackle any challenges that come my way.” - Jenna Race

Complex feelings. Students are fundraising to attend SSHA conference in DC & did a 5K this a.m. I wore a sandwich board asking for donations to our Venmo account. Proud of the students & ashamed of the state of US higher ed that we actually ask for money on the street to pay for an opportunity like this. The students are all first gen & all but one is from an underrepresented group.

As children, my grandparents were deported to Kazakhstan b/c they were of German origin from Poland and Ukraine. They never finished school and were so proud when I graduated. I think about them every single day. 🥲

#Introduction:

Hello #ScienceMastodon.

My name is Verena Kohler and I am a #FirstGen #scientist, currently working as independent senior #postdoc at #UniGraz in Austria.

I am interested, how age influences #proteostasis, the balance between protein production, folding and degradation, and how #ageing affects cellular #communication routes.
For that, I am using my favourite #ModelOrganism, the baker’s #yeast, a lot of #FluorescenceMicroscopy and #HighThroughput screens.

Let’s talk #science !

Some exciting #JohnsHopkins numbers #ClassOf2026

21% #firstGen college students
28.3% total first-gen and/or limited income

African American/#Black: 16%
Asian: 30%
Hispanic or Latine/x: 21%
International: 13%
Native American/Pacific Islander: 2%

#introduction in 🇬🇧:
Hi, I'm an applied mathematician enthusiastic about science in general and maths, imaging, optimisation and ai (not only the methods but also the ethical implications) in particular.
I'm #firstgen, passionate about #equalopportunities and #sciencecommunication. Currently working in the #ai4all project at @HHU. Co-founder of hermathsstory.eu. Probably tooting about science or private stuff involving football, dancing, music, feminism, travelling, food...

#introduction

I'm a staff scientist at Washington U in St Louis (#WashU #wustl #Missouri, USA), mostly working with human task fMRI datasets. I'm a big fan of #baseR and #knitr #rstats, #QC, and very extensive #supplementary materials. I insist on looking at data early and often; some #tutorials and examples on my blog. (#GotBrains?)

I'm a #FirstGen college grad, #IowaStateU; BS in #forestry. I also occasionally share cats, #knitting, and #crochet. Promoting abortion rights, not book bans.

#Community is one of the major themes of our podcast. #Academia tries to silo us into buckets. The #HiddenCurriculum forces #poc #Indigenous #Black #women #firstgen #disabled scholars to compete with each other for scarce resources in the dark while making it feel like it’s our fault. We’ve benefited so much from a community of academic aunties and we hope you can too.

All this to say, we’d love to rebuild our community of #marginalized scholars that we had at the bird site over here!

Here comes the #Introduction. I am a postdoc original from #Colombia interested in #insects, #evodevo #genetics 🧬 and #patterning.

I work with butterfly 🦋 color patterns as a model to study #wnt #signaling, #generegulation, and #morphological evolution. Connecting the #genotype to the #phenotype is the goal!!!

I am a #Latina, working at GWU, in DC. #FirstGen

Done tons of #CRISPR experiments in different species of #Lepidoptera

I hope it's not too late for my #introduction

I am an associate professor of #Psychology at the #UniversityOfWashington, proud #Immigrant and #FirstGen. I work in #CognitiveScience and #CognitiveNeuroscience and specifically in #PredictiveModels of #Memory and #DecisionMaking and #CognitiveArchitectures: I think they will play an important role in #ComputationalPsychiatry.

Besides being a #science nerd, I love #movies (soft spot for #horror), #nature (we have #horses !) and #bicycling
