If your program is represented, contact your senator for more information on current happenings in the GSG. If you have an idea for the GSG to explore, please inform your senator to get the ball rolling. You are more than welcome to accompany your senator to a GSG monthly meeting – we love guests!
We are always looking for new faces to fill empty seats! If your program needs a representative and you are interested in joining the GSG, please contact GSG President Max Bobbin (mbobbin@udel.edu).
The Senator Handbook provides insight into the roles and responsibilities of all GSG Senators.
