GSS Weekly Newsletter
Dear Graduate Students,
Your GSS needs YOU! We’re working on a new GSS website and updating our communications materials in general (you know and we know we need to!) To that end we’d like to create a bank of images we can use in our print and online materials. We’re looking for people to photograph who look like graduate students. You Would Be Perfect For This Job!
We ask 90 minutes of your time this Friday, March 28th. There will be two sessions: Session 1: 1:30 – 3:30pm or Session 2: 3:30 – 5:30pm. Please sign up. Please. Email: execassistant@gss.ubc.ca.
NB: You will be required to sign a disclaimer allowing the GSS to use these images.
