the following excerpts are from the CSGSA Bylaws...

The purpose of the Computer Science Graduate Student Association is threefold:

• to establish an official communication channel for Computer Science Graduate Students to voice ideas and concerns to the faculty and administration;
• to act as a communication medium for disseminating information within the Computer Science Graduate Student body;
• and, generally, to improve the academic and social environments available to all Computer Science Graduate Students.

Membership in the Association is open to all computer science graduate students.

The Association will meet a minimum of once a month during the academic year and at least twice during the Summer months of June-August.
