Description

Greetings CAHSS Graduate students, Faculty, and Staff, 

The Graduate Student Association (GSA) invites you to our upcoming Graduate Student CAHSS Town Hall on April 29th at 12:00 PM in Commons 331. As we navigate the current academic year, your voice is the most critical tool we have for driving policy changes, improving funding structures, and enhancing student well-being. 

This is your direct line to GSA leadership and university administration. Whether you have concerns about stipends, housing, GA/lab culture, or want to hear about upcoming initiatives, we want you in the room. 

The CAHSS graduate senators are committed to bridging the participation gap between our graduate students and the GSA. We want to ensure our CAHSS graduate community is fully aware of-and benefiting from - all available campus opportunities. In preparation for the townhall meeting, we are asking graduate students to complete the CAHSS GSA Participation Survey. Your feedback is very important for helping us understand how GSA can better serve our college.

Additionally, the GSA is currently seeking CAHSS Senators (paid appointment) for the 2026-2027 academic year. If you are interested in representing your peers, or would like to nominate a colleague, please email gsasenatespeaker@umbc.edu (GSA Senate Speaker) and Kneil1@umbc.edu (GSA Elections Chair) for information. 

Please click the survey hyperlink and take a look at the attached flyer. 

Thank you, 

CAHSS Senators
