Event Description
Books & Bagels is a one-hour monthly lunch time program hosted by the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and the Office of Graduate Studies (OGS). The program is in its third year and has hosted over 90 Drexel graduate student speakers from all of Drexel’s colleges and schools over the course of 40 events. The program features 2-3 current graduate students who present a brief 15-20 minute overview of their research project(s) and talk about their graduate experiences in an interdisciplinary context touching on the challenges, benefits, successes, and implications of their work. The presentations are then followed by audience Q&A and discussion lead by a faculty moderator. The format of the presentations are entirely up to the speaker. We have had PowerPoint presentations, Prezi’s, short videos, case studies, discussion groups, demonstrations, and more. We usually have about 50-60 students, faculty, and staff come out to the event and we also broadcast the program live online via Blackboard Collaborative.
