Teach for India is part of the Teach for All movement and seeks to find students who are in their post-undergraduate years and are willing to serve as a Fellow for two years in a classroom in India. A large part of their work involves working to help students receive a quality education in a classroom in India. These Fellows do not have to have a strong teaching background. In fact a lot of people come from other backgrounds and interests such as engineering.

For more information, please visit http://apply.teachforindia.org/

The deadlines to apply are October 25th, December 13th, and February 7th. If you interested in this opportunity and would like to set up a personal meeting, or if you need help with your application, please contact Antara Majumdar: antarama@buffalo.edu or Avni Singhal avni.singhal@teachforindia.org.

The GSA is participating in Trick-Or-Eat, an annual food drive sponsored by the Office of Student Engagement for the Food Bank of WNY. Each year UB students dress up in their best Halloween costumes and “Trick-Or-Treat” for donations. We would love to see a great response from our North, South and Downtown campuses.  Donations can be made at the GSA offices anytime before October 31st at 2:00pm.

Any GSA member that donates to this cause will be entered into a drawing to win prizes such as VIP Distinguished Speaker Series tickets or GSA swag!

Preferred donations include the following: canned fruits and vegetables, canned chicken and tuna, cereal, dry whole grain pasta, canned or dried beans, peanut and other nut butters, baby food and formula, diapers and wipes, toothpaste and shampoo. All donations must be new and properly sealed.
