Discussion & Affinity Groups

Techers of Color (ToC)
Techers of Color is a great way to meet fellow underrepresented minority (URM) graduate students and postdocs. This group is facilitated by a licensed psychologist. This space is designed to support students who identify as URM-self-identified; African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx, Asian Pacific Islander, & or Native American, and we welcome allies who would benefit from our programming. This confidential space provides resources to address issues of inclusion and equity.
Graduate & Postdoc Women's* Lunch
This gathering allows grad and postdoc women to explore topics pertinent to their academic, professional, and personal lives, having space to share stories and hear from others. Join us for an opportunity to tap into the strengths and supportive network of women at Caltech. We welcome allies to this space.
