Once you graduate from the University of Michigan and IGR, it can be incredibly tempting to want to continue being affiliated with IGR. Fortunately, there are many ways to stay connected - we have opportunities to become involved with us, no matter where you are located in the world!
Staying Connected
This semester, the Student Engagement Team focused on opening up the physical IGR space to more students on campus. With the CommonGround programming team, we coordinated three different open dialogues, one revolving around gun safety, one about cultural appropriation in Halloween costumes, and one about anti-blackness and the events at the University of Missouri. We arranged these dialogues so that they would be topical - hosting each either before or after a major event relating to the dialogue's topic.
