Come chat & let’s get real at the first Real Talk Tuesday of the quarter!
Join us on October 22 in CMU 129 from 12:30PM-2:00PM.

GO-MAP and the Center for Communication, Difference, and Equity (CCDE) join together to organize Real Talk Tuesdays (RTT) — a safe space to engage in real talk about issues that impact graduate students of color.

In these biweekly conversations, you bring the topic and we’ll talk about it. The discussions are organic and nurturing for the participants.
Also, come hungry- there will be pizza!
