GSC Representatives
|
| |
A. |
2 to 3 (usually second- or third-year) students
from the graduate student body volunteer for a term of service of up to
2 years. If more than 3 students volunteer, the current representatives
will hold a vote. Positions are staggered in the sense that every year
there will be at least one representative who has served previously.
|
| |
B. |
Representatives are required to hold meetings
each semester where issues relevant to graduate study are raised and
discussed. Graduate Student Advisory Council Representatives for the
Department will also attend so they may take issues dealing with
graduate student life to a GSAS-wide forum. Representatives should,
however, be contacted whenever questions arise. |
