Abstract
First Generation Students at Columbus State University identify as having a lack of resources that are helpful to them. This research paper analyzes the problems faced by first generation college students at Columbus State University. These needs were assessed using an electronic survey that was distributed to first generation students. The proposed goals are based around supporting the academic and social well-being of FGS at CSU. A set of strategies and tactics are proposed for reaching these goals.
