Meetings are not normally open to graduate students, but they are encouraged to approach their representatives or board members directly with any concerns. One of the primary ways the organization does that is by funding graduate student groups and services. It also gave funds to other registered graduate organizations. Also, the GSG sponsors a Graduate Research Interaction Day, also know as GRID, every year. This year the event is planned for April 25.
GRID allows graduate students the opportunity to present their research and compete for cash prizes.
Eric Bergthold, a masters student in anthropology, was appointed as GRID director by Bennett. The other executives for the 1999-2000 fiscal year include Jason Cristofero, vice president of legislative affairs, Elizabeth Pagel, vice president of administrative affairs, Bryan Herek, national association of graduate professional students representative and James Roseli, vice president of financial affairs.
