About Us

Our Mission

The CGLL supports a unique population of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars in an inclusive, welcoming environment. Our professional development programming covers five key areas: ethics and scholarly inquiry, communication, leadership, cultural engagement, and teaching. Initiatives include workshops led by potential employers and other collaborators, peer mentoring, fellowships, competitions, experiential learning opportunities, and credit-bearing elective courses. We also support well-being through community-building social events, affinity group meetings, and by advocating for Charlotte’s graduate students and postdocs
