The newly elected Graduate Students’ Association (GSA) Executive Council visited the Foothills Campus to learn more about the Foothills graduate student environment, campus culture, and the operations and advocacy work carried out by the Foothills Graduate Association (FGA).

The discussion focused on continuing to strengthen the active involvement and presence of the GSA at Foothills, enhancing collaboration on events and advocacy initiatives, and building a more connected and engaged graduate student community across campuses.

We truly appreciated the meaningful conversations and look forward to continuing this strong partnership between the FGA and GSA to further enhance graduate student life at the University of Calgary.
