The GSA was created in 1970 in order to protect the wellbeing of Graduate Students at what is now Concordia University!
However, records of those who worked to make Concordia University a better place for graduate students over the past 50 years are often forgotten. We want to change that!
This page aims to celebrate the work of past teams and record their impacts on the GSA.
2020-2021 GSA Team
The 2020-2021 team had a number of forces working against them, from a fully online environment to a short term. However, they successfully executed a number of projects! See what they spent their term doing for the community.
