Join a Graduate Student Affinity Group!

Looking to get connected with other graduate students and participate in a fun and supportive community? Consider joining a peer-designed and peer-facilitated affinity group!

Affinity groups are affirming spaces to build community with fellow students who share experiences, backgrounds, and social identities. Affinity groups connect peers with shared interests and help students find personal and professional support. Nine Graduate Affinity Groups are being offered this semester.

While each group centers particular identities, backgrounds, or experiences, ALL graduate students are welcome to participate, regardless of identity or background.

Hear from our Grad Affinity Group facilitators about their experiences in an affinity group:

Register by September 4 to receive information about the first meetings!

Contact Dean Ghada Endick, [email protected] or Program Assistant, Brianna Lopez [email protected] with any questions.
