A vital part of GSA’s representation work is to ensure that graduate students have a direct say in how the University develops and behaves, by nominating graduate students to sit on University committees. Every major decision made at the University will be discussed on a committee at some point, which is why student representation is so important.
GSA relies on our nominated committee members to keep us informed about discussions and decisions made by the University, so that we can continue to support and represent the interests of all graduate students.
Please see the position description for further details.
