BGSN Buddy

A BGSN buddy is a designated go-to person for about 1-3 new Black graduate students who will be arriving on campus.

This can look like grabbing coffee, giving a campus tour, or going to a go-to grocery store together.

The time commitment is minimal and entirely up to the buddy and the new student.

Also, the duration is completely flexible; it could vary from a week to a month to the entire Fall semester.

To sign up to be a buddy:  https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0wUW041gYdB9UJo
