Our Mission
The Graduate Student Association (GSA) exists to serve and represent graduate students—a unique and important population of students at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Housed within the Graduate College, the GSA promotes the intellectual community of graduate education; sponsors opportunities for professional development; creates opportunities for social interaction among graduate students; and advocates for issues relevant to graduate students and graduate education.
The GSA works in cooperation with the Office of Graduate Studies and University administration to create a quality educational and professional experience for graduate students.

Getting Involved
Become a Legislative Assembly Representative for your department
All graduate students are automatically members of GSA and are eligible to serve as departmental representatives. Each department that offers a graduate degree is allotted one representative. You will get to serve the campus-wide graduate population and meet graduate student leaders from all different departments. To see if your department is represented yet, check our list of department representatives.
Volunteer to serve on one of our standing committees
All graduate students are automatically members of GSA and are eligible to serve on any of the open committees. You may be asked to help plan or run a GSA event or just be there to help during the event. Either way you will get have the opportunity to network with graduate students across campus. See if there are committees you would be interested in.
Come to monthly meetings and/or just help out
All graduate students are welcome and encouraged to attend our monthly Legislative Assembly meetings. This is where you will learn everything that is going on regarding graduate students at UNL. If you just want to help out intermittently, email us and we will put you on the listserv.

Better World Books book drive
The GSA has teamed up with Better World Books to support the youth in Africa by providing quality college books. Please join us by supporting our book drive.
What is Better World Books?
Better World Books is a self-sustaining, for-profit social venture whose mission is to capitalize on the value of the book to fund literacy initiatives locally, nationally and around the world. Better World Books has partnered with Books for Africa (BFA). BFA collects, sorts, ships and distributes books to children in Africa. Their goal is to end the book famine in Africa. Since 1988, BFA has shipped over 15 million books to 28 African countries.
Better World Books drives have also sent over 500,000 books to BFA for use in their programs, and BFA is their largest source of post-secondary books.
How can you help?
You can donate your books in the green bins around campus. In addition, you can encourage your friends and colleagues to do the same.
