Special thanks to  First Generation Digital Storytelling project. This initiative explores the use of storytelling and digital social media to give voice to the rarely heard narratives of First Generation college students and graduates. This project is part of a partnership between Jane Van Galen at the University of Washington Bothell and Class Action.
