Mathematics graduate students working as GSI's should participate in the office draw. All graduate students in the UC Berkeley mathematics department are eligible to participate in the yearly office draw. Of course, it is not completely obvious what defines a mathematics graduate student. In addition to registered students, the office draw is open to students officially affiliated with Berkeley, such as those on filing fee or those whose advisors are visiting Berkeley. Ultimately, the office czars' list determines who particpates in that year's office draw.
Graduates are no longer eligible for offices through the office draw.
People who have officially withdrawn or will otherwise be absent from the department for more than a year should not enter the draw, either as individuals or part of a blocking group. Students who will be away from Berkeley for a semester or less should contact the office czars to make arrangements for that year. Students who already have an office in another department should not enter the mathematics office draw. Neither the department nor the campus has enough facilities to give multiple office spaces to the same person. Student who fail to appear at their appointed time, and who have not made prior proxy arrangements, will forfeit their office draw slot.
