Director of Project Search Lisa Chavers was the main event at last Friday’s Graduate Student Senate meeting.
Chavers shared a few points about the Project Search office, which is in charge of recruitment and retention of multi-ethnic students.
From September to November, Chavers is on the road recruiting.
“I have been from sea to shining sea,” Chavers said.
She wants to enlarge the recruitment team and invite graduate students and alumni to participate.
“My door is always open for graduate students looking for work or to help,” Chavers said.
Also at the meeting, the top 10 graduate student concerns were looked over. The information was gathered from a survey taken last spring. The paper was passed out this week, and discussion is to take place at the next meeting.
GSS also announced the Coalition of B!G Choices changed its name to the Drug, Alcohol and Sexual Offenses Coalition. The change was made to clarify the group’s objectives for students.
There was also a reminder that the memorial service for the two graduate students killed in a January traffic accident, Apsana Giri and Sweety Mazumdar, will be held at 2 p.m. on Feb. 16 in the Union Ballroom.
