Balance in Higher Education: A Case of Multiple Identities

• In Event: GSA- Balance in Higher Education: A Case of Multiple Identities (h)

Short Description

In universities around the world, graduate students are pulling double duty, serving as both students and instructors. Many also have third or fourth roles, be it a full-time career, raising a family, or life as an international student. In this panel, hear from six graduate students on how they balance the multiple identities that make up their lives in higher education and the additional struggles that came when all of those identities went remote.
