The Office for Diversity, Equity and Community Engagement's (ODECE) GradConnect program is an intentional space created for all GW graduate students across schools and from different backgrounds, cultures, and communities to come together. For many students, graduate school comes with its own set of challenges of trying to adjust to the university, research, and classes while also figuring out how to belong in spaces where you may not always be represented. GradConnect invites GW graduate students to visit and utilize the Multicultural Student Services Center (MSSC), while also providing an opportunity to network with students from other programs. The first GradConnect will take place Thursday, February 8th from 11 am-1:00pm in the MSSC (USC 5TH Floor)! Light refreshments will be provided!
