We are seeking a group of Fellows with diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and life histories for the DEI Graduate Fellows program. The DEI Graduate Fellows are a cohort of 30 MIT graduate students seeking to create a more equitable, inclusive, and engaging MIT community. This program is sponsored by the Graduate Student Council Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee (GSC DEI), the Office of Graduate Education (OGE), MindHandHeart (MHH), and the Institute Community and Equity Office (ICEO). We have a few more spaces for Fellows to apply, if you are interested in participating in this program please see this application<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScdLf7ET8n0FM6AGSblkl9m4NvncBhA1Uv-v11LXf1n4JaRcw/viewform> for more information!


Student Life

The Latinx Virtual Leadership Experience Conference will be held March 27, 2021. If you’re interested in attending and identify as LGBTQ+, LBGTQ+ Services can fund the conference ticket for you! Please email lbgt at mit.edu with your interest, and whether you’re an undergraduate or a graduate student (since there are separate funding applications for both groups).
