Graduate Student Advisory Council

The L&S Graduate Student Advisory Council (GSAC) is a community of outstanding L&S graduate student teachers who convene once a month to discuss L&S teaching initiatives, programming, and graduate policy issues.

The L&S TA Training & Support Team runs the GSAC. The goals of the GSAC are to:

  • Give its members a meaningful voice to shape L&S Teaching, Learning, and Academic Planning (TLA) initiatives, programming, and policies,
  • Give its members experience engaging with higher education administrative topics with L&S TLA officials,
  • Maintain a community of TAs across L&S and the TA Training & Support Team which fosters connection, curiosity, and growth as educators.
