Are you looking for a space to accomplish your study goals in a friendly environment, while also meeting peer members of McGill’s queer community? We invite you to join these closed peer study groups, open only to students who self-identify as part of the queer community. Drop by any of these sessions during October's Queer History Month and participate in whatever way works for you – no registration required! Snacks will also be provided!
How to get there: Enter at Service Point at 3415 McTavish (this is an accessible entrance on street level with push buttons) and pass the reception desk. Go down the long hallway and turn to the right at its end. MS-74 will then be the first door on your right.
