Pay it Forward is a student-led forum designed to bring together undergraduate student employees across campus to share their experiences and perspectives about being an undergraduate student employee. This space intends to foster open dialogue and collective reflection on the realities of student wages, while also exploring potential strategies to raise awareness for the ongoing percarity faced by students. By centering student voices, the forum aims to empower participants to engage in meaningful conversations and drive change through peer-led facilitation and collaboration
