Clubs

We fund 84 special interest, international, and departmental clubs that all graduate students can get involved with.

Student Advocacy

The GSA executive board meets regularly with the leadership of the graduate school, student life, sub-board, other governments, and virtually every level of university administration. Our primary goal is to insure that graduate student rights and culture are incorporated into university policy and decisions. Don’t hesitate to contact one of the e-board members if there is an issue that needs attention.

Senate

The GSA senate is comprised of representatives from every club in our organization – it is our primary vehicle for delivering information to the graduate student body at-large. Senate meetings are open to the public and usually convene on the first Wednesday of each month (see Senate page for time and location).
