Mission We will embrace the diversity of students and programs offered through St. Ambrose University s Graduate Programs in support of the University s mission. We represent a unified voice for all Graduate programs and serve as an advocate on behalf of all Graduate students via representation in key University affairs. As a liaison between students, program clubs, faculty and administration, we will deal with topics and issues which influence a students ability to successfully achieve their academic and career goals. GSGA will organize and promote opportunities for professional development, networking between graduate students and businesses, mentoring to the undergrad students, and provide a connection with community or political opportunities. The organization represents all graduate level program students attending classes conducted by St. Ambrose University.
Meetings are open for full membership to attend.
Members may participate fully in the meeting with the exception of voting, which is restricted to their program Senators. Representation Students are represented by Senators, appointed or elected from within their own program club. Each program club can be represented by two Senators, but at a minimum must have one active Senator to the GSGA in order to receive funding allocation. Clubs have autonomy from GSGA in the conduct of their meetings and activities except for rules, regulations, or other procedures outlined in GSGA governing documents or University Policies especially as they apply to reporting and financial recording. University Advisor To provide guidance and knowledge of University functions, a University Advisor to GSGA, is appointed by the University.
