What we're building this year.

GSC stands for Graduate Student Council— Babson's elected government for graduate students.

01 · Connect the Dots

We connect career access to your profile

Connect the Dots — career access at Babson

We're working with GradCCD to shift generic career events toward warm-intro, industry-specific sessions
We're hosting alumni speaker series with clubs — sessions built around jobs and careers
We're running a Graduate Student Council international student networking track for students building networks from scratch

02 · One GSC

We're one connected student body across every program

One Graduate Student Council — connected Babson graduate community

We're one GSC for all graduate students: 1Y, Part-Time, and 2Y MBAs; Blended Learning & Miami MBAs; MSEL; MSBA; and MSF.
We're hosting regular cross-program socials and mixers (e.g. Biweekly Rogers Pub Mixers, council BBQs, etc.)
Cross-Cultural Events Calendar: we surface cultural events across Babson—like our annual Holi Celebration
We're keeping WhatsApp and email channels consistent so no one misses what matters

03 · Build Babson Better

We're building a Student Voice Dashboard that tracks your feedback

Build Babson Better — Student Voice Dashboard

You can submit ideas and feedback anonymously and upvote what you want to see
We're making it easy to pledge volunteer support and see momentum on initiatives
We're closing the gap between what Babson promises and what you experience

See the Dashboard

Ask not what Babson can do for you, ask what you can do for Babson.
