Details

Graduate Student Appreciation Week is coming up, and we’re celebrating you! Join us for a week filled with fun events, free food, wellness activities, and opportunities to connect with fellow graduate students. It’s our way of recognizing the hard work, dedication, and impact graduate students bring to our campus community. Don’t miss the chance to relax, recharge, and be appreciated, come celebrate with us!

In 1993, three students, Tony Rosati (Georgetown University), Gina Pearson (American University) & Anne Holt (Florida State University), all activists within the National Association of Graduate and Professional Students (NAGPS), wanted to find a way to physically manifest support and appreciation of the contributions, impact and value of graduate students. Their effort led to a cooperative initiative called National Graduate & Professional Student Appreciation Week (GPSAW), which seeks to emphasize the contributions, impact and value of graduate and professional students on campuses throughout the United States. It is celebrated annually on the first full week of April.
