Ombudsperson
Graduate students may serve in many roles during their academic careers such as students, teachers, co-workers, colleagues, employees, or technicians. Varying rules/policies apply for the many roles. As long as the expectations for behavior are understood and accepted by all parties, there is rarely a problem. However, challenges can arise when there are differing expectations or conflicting policies, or when one group is accused of violating the rules. The ombudsperson advocates for the processes of graduate education by being equally open and accessible to all parties-students, faculty, staff, and administrators.
Student Research Week
Each spring graduate and undergraduate students are given the opportunity to showcase their research through a presentation and poster competition. This program is coordinated by Graduate Student Council and supported by the University Departments.
