The Ad Astra Conference brings first-generation students from universities across Kansas together for a common experience, with a desired outcome of greater persistence to graduation and a better prepared Kansas workforce. The conference is scheduled to be held Friday and Saturday, Nov. 3-4, at Wichita State. During the conference, first-generation college students across the state meet each other, share common challenges and opportunities, and get information about how to better understand the college experience and society.
More details and registration will be released at a later date. For a review of last year's conference, go to http://www.wichita.edu/adastra
