TRAVEL GRANTS: The Travel Grants Committee will be offering a workshop for graduate students who need help filling out paperwork for the GSA sponsored travel grant. The workshop will be from 12 to 2PM in the Graduate Student Commons on Friday, May 31st. There will also be a secondary workshop on Tuesday June 4th from 1 to 3PM in  consideration for those grads who commute to Santa Cruz or are otherwise unavailable on Fridays. GSA Travel Grants, which partially reimburse students for travel already completed, are due on June 7th at 5pm in the Commons. It is not necessary to come to the workshop in order to complete the travel grant forms, however, the forms that get rejected tend to become so on a technicality. Therefore, you can (and should!) come at any time between those hours to receive help and "pre-approve" your travel grant
