Check out some of the pictures (taken by Cassandra Foster) from the event: …

Believe it or not, Spring semester is rapidly approaching. If you’re a new graduate student, now might be the time you start panicking. One of the most common questions we receive in the Grad School Office at this point in the year is, “What should I do now?” To answer that question, we’ve compiled a checklist that should help you simplify the process: Register for New Graduate Student Orientation, which…

We kick off the semester welcoming new graduate students on…

We usually don’t stop and think about the…
There are only two weeks remaining until applications are due for the Fall semester, and just under ten weeks until classes start. It’s been so quiet around campus this summer that I’ve considered starting a countdown to August 25. Much like the running countdown until my vacation (9 days), my birthday (48 days) and Christmas (190 days). But really – who’s counting? Things get a little quiet for us during…
