Religious & Spiritual Communities
The Brown Graduate Muslim Students Association (BGSMA) seeks to foster a community for graduate students, in both master’s and doctoral programs, across all disciplines at Brown. The BGMSA serves this community through all facets of graduate life for the duration of their program, by offering various forms of community, professional, logistic, and emotional support. The organization’s goal is to provide community and friendship, professional development, and peer and family support for Muslim graduate students.
Leadership
The BGMSA is a graduate-majority organization led by an executive board, elected annually, of up to five officers and is advised by the University’s Muslim Chaplain and the Student Activities Office. Though the board works as a team, programming is kept light and officer duties are carefully designed to keep individual commitments manageable for students with very different programs of study.
