Crafton's First-Generation College Day Resource Fair hosted by the EOPS Department was held on Thursday, November 6, 2025, bringing together over 350 students to celebrate and recognize the achievements of first-generation college students.

The event featured a variety of support programs and campus resources, including EOPS, which is currently accepting applications for Spring 2026. Many students took advantage of the opportunity to apply on-site and learn more about the services available to first-generation students, such as priority registration, textbook assistance, parking permits, meal vouchers, academic counseling, and peer community-building opportunities.

The celebration created a lively and welcoming atmosphere with live music, raffle prizes, swag giveaways, “I AM FIRST” t-shirts, a photo booth, and complimentary lunch and donuts.

Overall, the event successfully honored the resilience and accomplishments of Crafton’s first-generation students while increasing awareness of the vital programs that support their academic journey and success.
