Who Are We? We are a psychology graduate student advocacy group at Bowling Green State University that aims to understand the unique needs of our fellow students and to initiate concrete actions toward meeting those needs. Based on our realization that some of the social and academic needs of our peers were not fully met, we initiated this student-directed, action-oriented group. Our ultimate goal is to enhance the lives and well-being of psychology graduate students.

Who Can Join? Membership is open to any psychology graduate student at BGSU.

When and Where Do We Meet? GradsACT meets the last week of every month. Specific dates and times are sent out via email the week before the meeting. Our meetings are always held in the Graduate Student lounge, room 408.
