We strive to promote community amongst graduate students, as well as graduate student integration into the university community. All graduate students are welcome to attend and participate in GSC meetings, parties, and academic events. 2) We work to ascertain and represent graduate student opinions and concerns, facilitating communication between graduate students, administration, and faculty." http://studentorgs.vanderbilt.edu/gsc/
