Academic/Professional Events & Resources

Graduate and Professional Student Association (GAPSA)

The Graduate and Professional Student Association is a new student group whose goal is to unite graduate students and establish a forum through which graduate and professional students are able to address issues, advocate for the greater good, grow professionally, and socialize with one another.

GAPSA has some space allotted to graduate students. The space consists of two rooms in Science & Tech II (100 and 100B). Here is a rough lay-out of the space: room 100 will have more of a lounge feel to it; 100B will be for quiet study. The space will be open for the same hours as Science & Tech II.

Ajima Olaghere is the CLSSA representative to GAPSA and will be reporting on GAPSA activities at our meetings.
