The U of A Graduate and Professional Student Congress cordially invites all graduate students to its November Policy dialogue scheduled for 5 p.m. Thursday, Nov.16, at the E.J. Ball Courtroom in the Leflar Law Center and on Zoom.

Policy Dialogue is a forum where graduate and professional students interface with university administrators/experts to discuss pertinent topics that affect their wellbeing and success on campus. It is also an opportunity for GPSC members to explore possible areas of partnerships with campus organizations/units to improve service delivery and graduate students experience.

Topic: Graduate students & housing challenges: Navigating living on and off campus

Speakers: Jeremy Battjes, vice chancellor for student affairs, and Jon Shaffer, assistant vice chancellor for University Housing in the Division of Student Affairs.
