GSA COUNCIL MEETINGS

GSA Council Meetings are held monthly. The schedule [5] for the 2013-14 GSA Council meetings is now confirmed.

The GSA Council Handbook [6] is a great resource for members.

All meetings are open to the public and graduate students are always welcome to attend. Students who wish to bring a matter to the board's attention are asked to contact the GSA office 7 days in advance of the meeting, so their issue may be added to the agenda.

You can view the GSA Council Meeting Agendas and Minutes under the GSA Council Resources [7] tab.
