This casual mixer is the perfect way to expand your network, whether you’re new to campus or a returning student.
Enjoy speed friending rounds with fun conversation prompts in a cozy café atmosphere, and take the chance to connect with fellow graduate students from diverse backgrounds. This event is a friendly, supportive space for building relationships that can last throughout the semester.
