The third-annual Fresh Tracks: First Generation Panel + Discussion featured four CAFES students who identify as first-generation college students. The panel of students from the Animal Science and the Natural Resources Management and Environmental Sciences Departments included Diego Ortega, Maya Tjan, Yuliana Guadalupe Hernandez and Vanessa Cervantes. They shared their personal stories of navigating the college experience and offered thoughtful advice for all students. Assistant Professor Moses Mike moderated the event, which was organized by the CAFES Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee as part of the college’s DEI Strategic Action Plan goal to create, retain, and sustain a more diverse community of students, staff and faculty that reflects and serves the diverse people of California.
