[GSC-Diversity-All] GSC DEI Weekly Newsletter

[Andrei Iliescu]

Hi everyone,

We hope you are enjoying the beginning of the new year and are feeling
rested and refreshed ahead of the spring semester! Please enjoy our latest
GSC DEI Newsletter!

General GSC DEI

The MIT Ad-Hoc committee on Arts, Culture, and DEI
<https://deiarts.mit.edu/committee-members> is seeking feedback on their
proposed recommendations. Please read the recommendations here
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/12kaeIqIcV_Mx7JzeyECcJQYp8sxTW1lW/view>
and submit feedback via this form <https://forms.gle/QXfxihQR7V9emYdR7>! If
you have questions in the meantime, don’t hesitate to reach out to Rima Das
at rimadas 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.
