2026–27 Platform

What we’re building this year.

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

01

Connect the Dots

Career access that fits your profile.

  • Working with GradCCD to shift generic career events toward warm-intro, industry-specific sessions
  • Alumni speaker series with clubs — sessions built around jobs and careers
  • An international student networking track for those building networks from scratch
02

One GSC

One connected student body across every program.

  • One GSC for all: 1Y, Part-Time & 2Y MBAs; Blended & Miami MBAs; MSEL; MSBA; MSF
  • Regular cross-program socials & mixers (Rogers Pub mixers, council BBQs)
  • Cross-Cultural Events Calendar — cultural events across Babson, like our annual Holi Celebration
  • Consistent WhatsApp + email channels so no one misses what matters
03

Build Babson Better

A Student Voice Dashboard that tracks your feedback.

  • Submit ideas and feedback anonymously and upvote what you want to see
  • Pledge to volunteer and see momentum on initiatives
  • Close the gap between what Babson promises and what you experience

Impact Tracker

Our roadmap, in the open.

Every initiative we take on gets a status, a focus area, and a date — coordinated in the open, like a public projects dashboard. Filter it, and hold us to it.
