Breaking barriers: Taylor’s path to success as a first-generation student

CSUSB student Jalonis Taylor’s journey from uncertainty to success as a first-generation college student is a story of resilience and determination. A part of the First-Generation College Celebration on Nov. 8, his experience at Cal State San Bernardino shines a light on the unique challenges and triumphs that students face. Taylor’s story is a reminder that with support and perseverance, students can achieve their dreams.

More than 80 percent of CSUSB students are first-generation, meaning their parents have not competed a four-year college degree.
