Student Resource Project

Co-Leads: Letty Treviño & JP Santos

Overview

Graduate students are unaware of the hundreds of resources their tuition and fees pay for. Our goal is inform the graduate student body and empower students to reach out the offices, centers, and programs on campus that can ensure their academic and professional success.

Members of GSA are meeting with the leaders and directors of these offices, centers, and programs to educate them about the graduate student body and work with them to develop outreach plans and programming specific to graduate students.

Notes

Student Challenges:
  • Myths
    • Students think "student resources" are designed and/or reserved for undergraduates. <<<<NOT TRUE (Most student resources are for undergraduate, graduate, and professional students)
  • Access
    • Students don't know where to learn about student resources and services. <<< Students can reach out to the Graduate Student Resource Center for help in connecting to resources.
    • Most offices are open during the work day. Graduate students aren't always on campus and when they do commute they don't have any gaps in their schedule.
  • Communication
    • Not all of our questions are answered through information on office websites. 
    • Grad students don't reach to office with ideas or request for programming. <<<You CAN do this.
Office/University Challenges:
  • Communication
    • Student resource centers don't always have access to graduate student mailing lists.
    • They don't know if they should be email students, sending information through social media, or which platform is the most effective form of communication
    • Offices assume that if they write "students" everyone understands that it applies to ALL students
  • Not-Informed
    • Not everyone is familiar with what it's like to go through a graduate education
    • Professional development opportunities and networks across the nation train student affairs officers in supporting undergrads without going into detail about how to support grades (NASPA itself has limited programming for grad services)
