Would like to have a couple of meetings among the above-mentioned graduate students and faculty to get things going, discuss ideas and plans. Paperwork has just been submitted to Activities and Recreational Sports to become a recognized student organization. As requested by one senator, Joe Gurley will send Micki a summary of the group's, ideals, and plans of the Colloquium Series. This program was begun prior to Dolores Huerta essay contest. Worked well in the past, and this student organization would like to continue it.
Orientation varies each year.
Rent out CUB and interact with students to try to encourage them to become graduate students at WSU, thus staying within the college. However, Latino students are targeted especially for help. These students have a tendency to enter WSU but not complete their program, drop out, etc. Other undergraduate organizations include MeCha and Mujeres Unidas. Helping this new group would fall under the overall GPSA goal of starting and maintaining as many student organizations as we can.
