Why Am I Here? A Questionable Talk by Lego Grad Student

Whether you care to openly admit it or not, grad school has probably felt like a sledgehammer repeatedly slamming into your face and soul. Spend an hour with Lego Grad Student as he attempts to explain why this is a perfectly normal–but not inevitable–feeling, and offers painfully learned advice on how you can manage it. (Satisfaction absolutely not guaranteed.) This event was cosponsored by GradFest and Night Out / Night Off for Graduate Students of Color.
