"As a first-generation college student, there is no one you can go to for help in your family. I remember trying to enroll as a high school senior and getting very frustrated because I had to figure out everything on my own. The Financial, Billing and Enrollment Center really helped me with financial solutions and my academic advisors were also very helpful. I would advise first-gen students to never hesitate to ask for help. There are also lots of resources on campus, you just have to put yourself out there."

LeRoy Neiman (1921–2012) was best known for his brilliantly colored, expressionist paintings and screen prints of athletes, musicians and sporting events. A new exhibition highlights his early, lesser-known work as a fashion illustrator and explores how it influenced his lifelong interest in capturing the clothing, gesture and style of his subjects.
