- Why doesn't my special interest
group (i.e. Students in USC Housing, International Students,
cultural groups) have representation on the Senate or Executive
Board?
Like your local, state, and federal governments, GPSS has
a one person, one vote policy. At the other forms of government,
the lowest common denominator is your residency. Within
the graduate and professional schools, it is our academic
unit. Every student has a senator based on their primary
academic unit. However, our committees do represent the
needs of special interest groups. Please see our Committees webpage to learn more about our committees. If you don't
see a committee there that represents you, you can always
suggest an ad hoc committee to the Vice President, gpssvp@usc.edu.
- Will GPSS come to our lobbying day
for unionization, taxes on TA stipends,
or any other related graduate student political issue? Will
GPSS write a
letter in support or make a statement in support of a particular
political
issue?
No. GPSS is decidedly apolitical. To learn more about this,
see our official
stance on our About GPSS webpage.
- How am I represented in GPSS?
Each academic unit has a Senator. To find out who your Senator
is, see the Senators
listing.
- How do I know who is the Senator from my
department?
Check the Senator webpage
and sort the list by department. Then you will be able to look up your Senator
and contact them.
- I used to be involved with GPSS
and would love to find out what other people, whom I knew
during my GPSS tenure, are doing now?
Great! We'd love to have your involvement and input. Please
visit our Alumni
Directory to catch up with old friends.
If your question is not answered here, please
e-mail Junelle Mallari, GPSS Communications Chair, at gpsscomm@usc.edu
with your question. If the question pertains generally to
graduate and professional students, we will add it to our
FAQs webpage. Thanks!
