At Keene State, 49% of our undergraduate students are among the first generation in their families to pursue a college education. Keene State College Aspire Program specializes in supporting these first-gen students and held a series of events to celebrate First-Generation Day, which included a virtual presentation by Tara Westover, author of the best-selling memoir Educated, and President Treadwell '90, a first-generation student herself. #FirstGenDay #KeeneState

An end of the semester message from Keene State President Melinda Treadwell. Thank you for staying #OwlsUnited this fall. Don't forget to get tested on Thursday or Friday this week before you head home for Thanksgiving. Because of you, we were able to stay on campus and hope to repeat our success in the spring.
