For pharmacy graduate students in need, help is only a phone call away.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s day or night,” said Nitesh Sanghai, coordinator of the peer-to-peer student group in the College of Pharmacy and a student in the PhD program. “You just call.”

Sometimes a master’s or PhD student might reach out over something simple, like asking a classmate to read over a proposal before they hand it in. Other times, they may need the kind of support only possible from someone who has been in their shoes. That’s where the peer-to-peer student group comes in.

“I worked in safety science back home in India before I came here,” said Sanghai. “I knew how everything worked. Here, I didn’t know anything. I didn’t know anybody.”
