Remember – GSS staff know what it is like!
Most GSS office staff are graduate students, too. We are familiar with UVIC rules and regulations that affect graduate students, and can provide referrals, advice, confidentiality and support.
Want something fixed at UVIC?
Graduate students (and groups of graduate students) are encouraged to bring their concerns to the attention of the Director of Student Affairs. They can bring the issue (anonymously) to the Executive Board. The Board can then bring proposals to change a policy or practice to the President, the Dean of Graduate Studies, or any other relevant UVIC Senior Administrator.
Email the Director of Student Affairs
The GSS has been successful in changing some policies for all students on the strength of the information brought to us by one or two members.
