Texas A&M has a rich history of programs that support first-generation students. One of the most important responsibilities of the Routh First-Generation Center is to coordinate with other first-generation programs and those that serve large numbers of first-generation students. The First-Generation Coordinating Committee brings together representatives from each undergraduate college, student affairs, academic affairs, McAllen, and Galveston on a biweekly basis. If you have any questions about the committee, you may contact lety-palomin@tamu.edu

The Committee Charge
The First-Generation Coordination Committee will serve as a communication hub and consensus building body for all first-generation programs and initiatives at TAMU. The committee will discuss first-gen student issues and logistics, examine first-gen campus data, and advocate for needed change and support.
