• Addressing conflict in student orgs, staff teams, and roommate situations
• Strengthening resilience and communication
• Developing mindsets and practices that support leadership during challenging moments

Training Dates:
 Winter Break: January 6 & 7

Dear Graduate Students,

Thank you to everyone who showed interest in serving on the GSA Elections Committee. We received an incredible response from students committed to strengthening transparency, accountability, and representation within our graduate community.

We are excited to announce the selected Election Committee Co-Chairs:

✨ Reena Kale — GSA Co-Chair
✨ Neil Kpamegan — Non-GSA Co-Chair

Please join us in congratulating both Reena and Neil!

We look forward to working with them as they help lead the upcoming GSA election cycle.

We also want to extend our appreciation to all other candidates who applied. Your dedication to graduate student governance is deeply valued, and you will be considered for Election Committee member positions. We hope you continue to stay involved and support ongoing GSA initiatives throughout the year.
