Grad Student Orientation You Wish You Had
Join us for the orientation you wish you had! We remember feeling lost on our first day as new grad students - who are also here to work. How do I know what forms to fill out to get my paycheck? Where can I use the student health insurance? How do I find a graduate assistantship? These questions are REAL and real overwhelming. But you're not alone. Come to our info sessions to get the insider perspective from grad workers who've made it through.
Invite the new and returning grad students in your department to our info sessions. The sessions are created and presented by GAGE members, real grad workers who have first hand experience with navigating bureaucracy just to get a paycheck, puzzling through the student healthcare, and hunting for assistantship positions.
