Hi Grad Students,
I am unable to attend a meeting where I fill the position as the
Graduate Student Representative, If would you be interested acting
as a proxy please Let me know ASAP. The meeting for the Guidelines &
Policy Committee is thursday (tomorrow) at 9:30 am in room E1-270
EITC. The meetings rarely run longer than an hour and it is a great
chance to get involved and see how the University functions on
another level.
Thanks,
Tyler Guerrieri
