Welcome from the GSO President
Wed, 02/20/2008 - 8:32pm — GSO President
Greetings! I hope all of you who are returning are having a smooth transition into the fall semester, and all new students are getting adjusted and acclimated well. The GSO represents all graduate students on campus, regardless of program/area/department or degree path. If you don't know whom your representative is, find out, and make sure that he/she keeps you up-to-speed on GSO happenings. If your department or program does not currently have a representative, you may be eligible to fill that spot. As graduate students, our lives can be challenging, stressful, and generally difficult in addition to being enlightening and enriching. GSO is here to help make grad student life at Stony Brook the best it can be. We are a group of grad students, elected by grad students, working for grad students.
