Mission

Our mission is to connect, empower, and inspire undergraduate and graduate women across the University of Chicago by teaching tangible skills & increasing access to resources to utilize in professional environments.

History

Elevate UChicago was founded by four students from the University of Chicago and one student from Northwestern University in July 2017. The founders connected by attending the United State of Women, Galvanize Chicago empowerment event and desired to see a similar event focused on collegiate women. Since then, Elevate UChicago has partnered with other women-focused groups across UChicago campus divisions including Women in Business at Chicago Booth, Women in Public Service Program of the College, and Women in Public Policy of the Harris School. Elevate UChicago is an officially recognized student organization of the University of Chicago with advisor Michele Rasmussen, the Dean of Students in the University.
