DGS Summits

The DGS Summit is an opportunity to welcome new DGS into their role and assist all DGS in learning about DGS’ function and potential, current Graduate School initiatives, and changes to University & Graduate School policies, procedures, and programs.

DGS Summits are generally held in August, before the beginning of the Academic Year.
