Diversity, Belonging & Respect Committee
The Department of Chemistry at Boston College is committed to creating and supporting an inclusive and diverse community of students, faculty, and staff within our department.

Our main objectives are to:
- Facilitate conversations, seminars, journal clubs and social events to foster diversity, belonging, and respect for our community
