More Than Your Average Student Organization

The Biology Graduate Student Society (BGSS) is an organization run by grad students, for grad students. We organize both social and professional events, ranging from a variety of holiday parties to the department’s annual graduate research day (GRD) conference. From pumpkin carving to career day, the BGSS aims to foster connections within the department and improve the graduate student experience!
