Socializing

 

"PEGASUS has helped me meet other FGC students. We have lots of events that help us learn college skills and we have a lot of fun!"

 

  • Pegasus stands in mythology as a means of accomplishing the previously unattainable. Throughout the ages, the image of the winged horse has evoked thoughts of exploration, independence, and triumph. Across the cultural spectrum, the winged horse signifies pure intellect, unblemished innocence, light, and life itself.
  • The TTU PEGASUS Program seeks to make exploration, innovation, and academic success attainable realities for First Generation College (FGC) Students. The emblem of PEGASUS is not only a reminder of these noble goals, but it is also a symbol of the services with which the program will provide its students.
  • PEGASUS is focused on helping you become the first in your family to really learn about college through the experience of being here.
  • First and second year students as well as transfer students can be assigned to a student mentor. Our mentors are juniors and seniors in the program and are here to help develop peer relationships that are proven to be vital to your success while in college.
  • For faster and easier access to PEGASUS events, get togethers, and members we now have a Facebook group and a Twitter page. Make sure you check these out!
