I am also a first gen student and graduate student about to graduate. I am 100% virtual and would love to be included somehow. I would love a first gen cord as well. Is there anyway we can get one?

I received an invite. I couldn’t make it to the event because I am accelerated online . Ans haven't had time . I am so sad because I can’t go to pick up my chord during the week. Is there a way to still get it? Can it be mailed or could I pick up on a Saturday? I would appreciate a prompt response. Thanks.
