In compliance with the GSC Bylaws, all graduate students are welcome to attend GSC general meetings and participate in discussions, but only departmental representatives may vote. The number of department representatives is proportional to the number of graduate students; that is, 1 representative for every 40 currently enrolled graduate students.
Departments are free to choose representatives according to their own internal procedures. If your department does not have a GSC representative, please contact the Chair of Communications. If you are a current representative but are unable to attend a GSC general meeting, please appoint a proxy from the graduate students in your same department. Note: A department that consistently fails to send a representative to GSC general meetings loses its good standing with the GSC. To be considered in good standing, departments must have been represented at one of the two previous GSC general body meetings at the time of review.
If you are interested in being a representative, please get in touch with one of your department’s current representatives, listed below.
Notes:
- This list is correct as of September 1, 2024.
- Details of where your department falls in terms of disciplinary grouping (biology and medical sciences; humanities; life sciences; physical sciences; or social sciences) can be found in the faculty rules and regulations and in the university academic listings.
- New representatives: Please contact the Chair of Communications so that this list accurately reflects your department’s status.
- Asterisk (*) indicates a vacancy.
