First-Generation College Students

This guide is meant to be a living document of materials for, by, and about first generation and working class college students. While many of these materials are on hand at Ohio Wesleyan University, we also want to highlight the ability to order things -- free of charge -- from other schools in the state, to help you find and receive more of whatever you need to succeed.

OWU has a robust collection of books, films, and more. But we don't have everything. If you see something you want, whether it be for class or for personal use, you can order it -- free of charge -- from schools and public libraries around the state! In each of the sections found to the left, I include not just books that we have, but things you can order from elsewhere.
