hello BGSAers!
The leaves are turning, and that means it is time for us to do our first general meeting of the 2012-2013 school year! In case you missed the email from our fearless president, here it is!
Hello,
I am pleased to inform you that your 2012-2013 membership to the Biology
Graduate Students Association (BGSA) has been approved. The benefits of
this association are many and include:
1. Free food
2. Making new friends
3. Throwing socks at graduate students
4. Seasonal carving of squash
5. Dancing with your supervisor
Would you like to know more about this exclusive association? Then come
to the General Meeting next Thursday, October 11 from 4-5pm (following
the Organismal seminar) in the Redpath Auditorium. Attached is the
agenda for you to peruse. Reply if you would like to have anything added
to the agenda. Would you like to become a elite member of this club and
are interested in representing the rights of TAs AND get some $$ for
it? Then become an AGSEM representative! We have one vacancy available
and will be holding elections at the general meeting. If you would like
to put forth your name as a candidate have three students support your
nomination with the attached form and have them send the form to bgsaelections@gmail.com. You must also submit the candidate form attached to the same address.
I hope you take advantage of all benefits of this association. Your first opportunity is the free snacks at the meeting.

Monica Granados
