Graduate Student Affairs

The Office of Graduate Student Affairs works to enhance students' social and academic lives by providing cultural and social networking activities outside of the classroom. The Office hosts a wide array of activities from monthly on-campus social events to discounted Broadway tickets and local sporting events. There are also a variety of clubs and organizations funded by the Graduate Student Council ranging from academic to cultural interests.
