Midland College will host a First Generation, First-to-College Resource Fair, sponsored by Phi Theta Kappa, on Oct. 19 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Carrasco Room. This event is designed to empower first-generation college students by providing valuable resources, networking opportunities, and insights from those who have navigated the challenges of higher education.

Midland College is excited to announce the launch of its new class of First-Generation Ambassadors. This initiative aims to enhance student involvement through community service, provide workshops that promote both academic and personal success, and build a robust network of support for first-generation college students.

Midland College is hosting a special lecture today at 6 p.m. in the Cogdell Learning Center, featuring Dr. José Angel Hernández, a distinguished scholar and award-winning author. As part of the college's celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Dr. Hernández will explore the late nineteenth-century movement that relocated Tejano families back to Mexico, highlighting how this process of autocolonization differs from traditional settler colonization.
