Kicking off another year
To kick off the new academic year, we’d like to invite all UC Berkeley graduate students — master’s, professional, and doctoral — both new and continuing to attend our Grad Student welcome event; Grad-stravaganza on Wednesday, September 3 from 4-6 p.m. This will be our 4th annual event with a goal of gathering graduate students of all backgrounds and areas of study to simply have some fun.
Grad-stravaganza is an outdoor gathering at the Campanile Esplanade.
