Recently, SGA had pilot talks featuring faculty from diverse backgrounds sharing their stories, inspiring paths at ‘Inspire@Tech’ and ‘Revolutionaries’. Going forward we are combining our efforts under "Illuminate Tech" and we are back with the second installment of this series - where we invite student speakers to share your stories of struggle, impact made outside of the classroom, and other inspiring and empowering journeys as college students. Through YOUR VOICE, we hope to ILLUMINATE these hidden stories of GT students.

Life at Tech can be tough, for undergraduates and graduates alike. We want to use "Illuminate Tech" as a platform to enable students to share their story, and connect with others. One of these speakers could be your next friend, peer mentor, coach, role model, or inspiration. One of them could be YOU. We will feature stories of perseverance and resilience of students who have pushed through various barriers, be it personal or professional and emerged successful in their journey. Know your peers in a different context. Understand their stories.
