At each annual SSWR conference, there is an organized lunch for all doctoral students. This is a great place to network with your colleagues across topics and universities. This luncheon also features a keynote speaker or panel each year! These are always focused on issues relevant to the doctoral student experience. Here are the past years' presentations, in case you missed it. For SSWR 2021 we will be hosting a virtual Doctoral Studnet Session in place of the traditional lunch. More information on the panel is available here: http://www.sswrdoc.com/dsc-events .
