Mission of the project
Mission of the project
In our First Year Seminar course, our students were asked to share their unique stories with the college community in a photograph. After learning about the creative process from a local photographer, Carla B. Long, they visually depicted their strengths and attributes. The photo was supposed to answer the question, "What do you bring? What is your First-Generation or York College of Pennsylvania (YCP) proud story of the value, cultural, identity, or character strength you bring to campus." Their photograph should frame their experience, culture, resilience, or background.
