Welcome to the GEC Homepage
The purpose of the Graduate Executive Committee (GEC) is to provide graduate student input to other departmental committees whose charges affect graduate students (e.g., the Departmental Executive Committee, The Graduate Affairs Committee, etc.).
To provide this input the Graduate Executive Committee:
(1) meets on a regular basis to discuss issues;
(2) solicits opinions from each graduate student class when the Committee deems it necessary; and
(3) communicates with graduate student members on other departmental committees.
The Graduate Executive Committee also meets with the Department Chair and Vice Chair on a regular basis. The agenda typically includes items such as departmental policies that are of concern to graduate students (e.g., evaluations, grievances), methods of communication between department committees, and issues concerning TAs, and GSRs (e.g., workload, assignments).
