Graduate Men’s Support Group

This weekly support group is offered for students who self-identify as male grad students and wish to come together to discuss the challenges of being a grad student and/or any other topics for which they are seeking support. Common themes within the group include (but are not limited to) ways to deal with the hurdles & hassles of school, find ways to connect with others, discuss relationship issues, and consider ways to manage stress & live a balanced life as a Berkeley student. Students who join the group are welcome to return semester-after-semester.

This group requires a brief pre-group meeting with the group facilitator before joining. We accept new group members on an ongoing basis, and students may join after the start date.
