About Us
"Gen 1" at Concordia University Texas is a distinctive and inclusive initiative designed exclusively for first-generation college students. This club stands as a pillar of support for those who are the pioneers of higher education in their immediate families. At Gen 1, we acknowledge the unique challenges that come with being the first in the family to pursue a college degree. Our mission is to foster an environment of understanding, mentorship, and community. Through monthly Gen1 events, students are encouraged to tap into resources, connect with like-minded peers, and pave a successful academic journey. The club also emphasizes building relationships with faculty, balancing work and school, getting involved in campus life, and celebrating the individuality of each member. Together, as a Gen 1 community, we navigate the nuances of higher education and ensure that every Generation1 Tornado feels at home at CTX.
