GSA Meetings
GSA meetings are open to all graduate students and faculty. Bring your ideas, questions, concerns, and appetite (because there will be pizza)!
Professional Development Seminars
As always, pizza will be provided and if you attend five PDS events you earn a special stole for graduation!
If you would like to attend virtually, head to our social media pages for the link (posted the day before). While you're there, hit like for GSA updates.
GSA and PDS meetings are located in the Second Floor Commons area of McWherter Library and on Zoom.

12:30-1:30pm PDS #1 – CVs, Cover Letters, and Thank You Notes, Oh My!: Creating and
Updating Job Application Materials McWherter Library and Zoom - POSTPONED -- Out of an abundance of caution due to the inclement weather and respect for your
valuable time (the University will not announce if it is open tomorrow until 6:00am
tomorrow), the GSA will postpone this first PDS event. This way we will be able to
keep the CV/Resume correction station and individual interactions for advice with
our speakers in person. Stay tuned for an updated schedule and be safe!
