[GSC-Diversity-All] GSC DEI Weekly Newsletter

[Andrei Iliescu]

Hi everyone,

We hope you are having a great end of the semester and that you are staying
warm! Please enjoy our latest GSC DEI Newsletter!

General GSC DEI

Pop-up Food Connection Initiative

GSC DEI is launching The Food Connection, a new initiative to address food
insecurity on campus! Stop by our table *tomorrow, Wednesday 12/15, 4-8PM
in Stata, first floor*, to pick up a food package, or visit
tinyurl.com/foodconnect to submit an anonymous request for pick up or
delivery. If you are interested in volunteering for monthly Food Connection
events throughout the 2021-2022 academic year, please email us at
gsc-diversity-officers at mit.edu.

Department and Classroom Inclusion

Are you looking to get more involved with GSC DEI and help get your
department connected to our DEI community? We are looking for more conduits
from departments across MIT schools to help us learn about the needs of
individual departments and inform our plans moving forward. If you are
interested in serving as a GSC DEI conduit for your department or know
someone who might be, contact us as gsc-diversity-officers at mit.edu.

Conduits are graduate student representatives who are interested in DEI
efforts in their departments. Conduits attend a couple of meetings per
semester where we engage in discussion around ongoing DEI efforts. Overall,
it’s a great way to join a network of students interested in DEI and share
institutionalized knowledge and best practices across departments.


Other Open Positions

We have open positions for a Treasurer and a Constituency Representative
(C-Rep) for first generation/low income students. Please contact
gsc-diversity-officers at mit.edu if interested.


Student Life

Do you have an idea for an event centered around community-building among
students and DEI advocacy? Whether it’s a supportive meet-and-greet, an
informational panel, or anything creative in between, we would love to
provide support! Please get in touch with us at
gsc-diversity-officers at mit.edu to discuss your initiative and potential
funding opportunities.
