  1. Congratulations, Malia! Thank you for sharing about your journey as a first-gen student at BU. Thank you for being willing to be vulnerable and share the struggle and also to share the awesome accomplishments you have achieved thus far! I know your story will resonate with many and I hope it will inspire more students to look to the Newbury Center for support, as well as inspire our greater BU community to support the Center.

  2. Congratulations to her. I am excited for your success as a first generation student also.

    I wished I was admitted into this BU this 2025 but I was rejected. Please keep intercepting for us first generation student from marginalized communities in Africa to have space into BU society and make more difference.

    Together we stand strong and firm.
