The Graduate Life Office Is Here to Support You
The Graduate Life Office (GLO), a unit in the Student Affairs division, is here for you as a source of comprehensive and impartial guidance and information about all aspects of life as a graduate student. We can help you with many personal, academic, and financial issues, or direct you to someone who can.
Start here with any issue you may have, large or small. We are happy to serve as a sounding board if you just need someone to listen.
Faculty and Staff: Do you know a student who needs help?
Often faculty and staff members are the first to notice a grad student is struggling with either academic or personal issues. You may refer students to us directly, or meet with us to discuss what to do.
We're Helping Build a Community of Grad Students
A large part of our work involves providing and encouraging social connection and interaction among all graduate students. We:
- Sponsor university-wide events, such as New Graduate Student Orientation (NGSO)
- Oversee the Community Associates (CAs) in graduate residences, and assist with program planning as needed
- Sponsor the Graduate Student Programming Board (GPSB) and work closely with it and the Graduate Student Council (GSC)
