IN THE COMMUNITY
Since 1989, the Black Graduate Student Association (BGSA) has been instrumental in the academic, professional, and personal development of master’s and doctoral students at Texas A&M 
University. Given the current social environment, I thought it important to have contact with this group of dedicated student supporters. Importantly, among the many activities of the group, they host a Weekly Writing Sessions Via Zoom (Tuesdays 10PM-2AM (yes); and Wednesdays 1-3PM), please consider being involved. For more details please go to www.bgsa-tamu.weebly.com or email Asha Winfield (current president) at [email protected]
