Student Senate

On behalf of the Student Senate (formerly Graduate Student Council), we hope that you had a great summer. With this letter, we welcome you to a new year at CGU filled with many exciting opportunities. We are aiming to create more community and connection within CGU and with the 7C over the course of the upcoming year, promoting CGU pride and making all students feel welcome and supported on our campus.

Whether you are a new or a continuing student, we invite you to get involved with the Student Senate to connect with fellow CGU students, to advocate and make a difference, and most of all have the complete graduate student experience, making the most of your time at CGU. The best way of getting involved is through attending Student Senate General Meetings, which are scheduled on Tuesdays for this semester. We will be holding alternating in-person meetings at 12pm and virtual meetings at 8pm, these are the dates of the next meetings:

September 17th, 12pm: General Meeting (in person, McManus Conference Room)
September 24th, 7pm: Q&A Session with CGU Leadership (virtual)

In addition to the general meetings, we have our annual Ignite the Light event coming up on October 10th. It is a family friendly event and celebration for the whole CGU community, there will be music, a food truck, games, and an opportunity to network with fellow CGU students, faculty, and staff. We are also hosting a Roadmap to the 7Cs Scavenger Hunt open to all CGU students as a chance to explore both CGU and the 7C. Stay tuned for more information!

We hope you had a good start of the semester and look forward to seeing you at one of our meetings.
