The following update is from one our HGC Reps, Annie Levin:<\/p>\n
Here’s the report from tonight’s meeting:<\/p>\n
1.\u00a0 The Advocacy Committee is restructuring, becoming one larger committee rather than several smaller ones, in order to better coordinate advocacy issues.\u00a0 The committee would like at least one representative from each school; we need to determine which of our reps will serve on that committee.<\/p>\n
2.\u00a0 Every year the HGC sponsors a “Presidents’ Summit” for the student government presidents from each grad school.\u00a0 This year, they are thinking of combining it with the Harvard College “Club President Summit” in April.\u00a0 More details at the next meeting.<\/p>\n
3.\u00a0 There is potentially a “town hall” meeting in the works, to allow graduate students to voice concerns with a high-ranking Harvard official.\u00a0 Date and time (and Harvard official) still pending.<\/p>\n
4.\u00a0 The Events Committee is working on a “Developing Dialogues” event to bring students from different schools together in an academic setting.\u00a0 Ideas of speakers and topics are welcome from all HGC reps.<\/p>\n
