Queer History Month Peer study groups

The QHM peer study groups are for students who self-identify as part of the queer community. These study groups are an opportunity to accomplish your study goals in a friendly environment, while also meeting peer members of ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ’s queer community.

📅Thursdays in October, 11am-1pm, McLennan Library, MS-74.

What can you expect from these study groups?

  • Goal setting – decide what you want to focus on at the top of each hour
  • Flexibility – come when you can, leave when you’re done, no need to stay through the whole session
  • Accountability – if you commit to coming at the same time each week, you will make progress in establishing a solid study routine (This is a great space to crush out those difficult weekly tasks that you may be putting off!)
  • Connection – introduce yourself to your fellow students and encourage one another to accomplish your goals
  • Support – the sessions are led by a current ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ Masters student who can help you navigate the nuances of ƽÌØÎå²»ÖÐ academics
