Grad Student Network: Meetings and Events
Fall 2024
Save the Dates:
Annual Grad Student Network Dinner is January 22, 2025, 6:00pm. Dinner will be served. Join us for a conversation about what to expect before you start on your “first book” project, and other academic writing. We will have a small panel of experts give useful tips and then the conversation will continue over dinner. Registration required. Please feel free to invite other grad students that might be interested in learning more about academic publishing.
Annual Student Recognition Celebration is April 10, 2025, dinner time TBA. This event celebrates the recipients of our Student Excellence Awards and students supported by a Fellowship or Top Up from the Center. Details will be shared later this spring.
