Informal Perks
While GA's are provided a breadth of benefits, there are some informal perks that make our department unique.
Our department operates within a co-supervision model. This means within your building or community, there is a full-time staff member paired with a GA. This is beneficial to glean experience from one another, while providing support for GA's with busy schedules.
We offer flexible time off for graduate coordinators, which ensures that you have the ability to be active outside your assistantship. This is most prominent during academic break periods, where graduate coordinators are encouraged to take time away from their position.
GA's are fully supported in their ambitions to engage with community outside their work by finding connections among the Senior Staff team. The department is a social atmosphere that promotes personal and professional wellbeing and connection. We often attend campus/community events together and have group activities such as intramural sports to participate in.
