Graduate Student Committee
The Religious Studies Graduate Student Committee (GSC) represents graduate student interests within the department by serving as a bridge between the faculty and the student body. It facilitates graduate student input in departmental life and provides opportunities for graduate students to meet, share ideas and concerns, and make the most of their academic, social, and professional life at Yale. All graduate students are eligible to serve on the GSC, following an annual election, and there is no limit to the number of members.
Each year, the GSC organizes professionalization and social programming, such as SBL/AAR practice sessions, CV/cover letter workshops, mock job talks, lunches, happy hours, and game nights. The GSC also connects the student body with departmental decision-making, by soliciting student views and arranging for student representation in departmental processes. Graduate students with questions about the GSC or departmental life should reach out to the GSC members.
