Dear Graduate Students,

As a UCSC grad student, you are a member of the Graduate Student Association (GSA). We serve the interests of the 1,400 graduate students by representing your concerns to the UCSC faculty, administration, and staff, and by providing services which are more effectively addressed as a group.

We defend the interests of graduate students with regard to tuition and fees, health insurance, parking, on-campus housing, and other important issues. In addition, the GSA organizes and co-sponsors events and makes available travel grants for graduate students attending conferences or traveling on thesis-related research.

What can the GSA do for YOU? Did you know:

• GSA income comes from student fees ($10 per quarter per student) and University Registration Fees.

• 1/3 of the GSA budget goes to ... Travel Grants!

• You may not have a department rep... are your department's interests represented?

Love organizational theory? Then read our constitution and bylaws.

We hope to see you at our next meeting.
