GC Women of Color

The mission of the Graduate Center Women of Color is to support women of color graduate students through the completion of their degrees.  By developing relationships with other students, faculty, and members of the GC  and CUNY community gcwoc seeks to provide the necessary guidance, support, and encouragement needed to navigate the challenges that women of color may encounter.  The aim of this group of determined and committed scholars is to create a space for the expression and exchange of ideas across all disciplines with the ultimate goal of equipping members with the tools to survive and succeed in graduate school.  Through peer mentorship; networking; round table meetings; special programs and lectures we hope that our members will help manage their various identities (daughters, partners, mothers, workers, etc.) in their attainment of personal, scholarly, and professional goals.

We welcome all women of color and look forward to your presence and participation at future events and here on this blog.
