The Racialized Graduate Students Collective (RGSC) is proud to offer a range of special events tailored to meet the diverse needs and interests of our members. These events, organized upon request, reflect our commitment to personal growth, professional development, community celebration, and academic support and dialogue. By partnering with both on-campus and off-campus service providers, we ensure a rich and comprehensive array of resources and opportunities. Through these special events, the RGSC reaffirms its dedication to supporting Black and Racialized graduate students and enriching their educational and social experiences.
Our second professional development workshop for Winter 2026 will be held on March 27, at 11.30 am NL time.
In a time when anti-racist and equity-driven work is often co-opted, under-resourced, or met with institutional gaslighting, how do we continue to do this work without fragmenting ourselves? How do we refuse to be consumed by the academy while still imagining and enacting liberatory academic practices?
Join renowned scholar Dr. Kakali Bhattacharya for an intimate, bold, and unapologetically soul-rooted session that centers self-preservation as a revolutionary act. Drawing on contemplative, de/colonial, and critical qualitative traditions, this gathering will explore how to integrate anti-racist and equity frameworks into research, teaching, and service without erasing our joy, wellness, or wholeness.
