Fall Graduate Assistant (GA) Orientation
The Graduate College is holding Graduate Assistant Orientation, a mandatory training session for newly appointed GAs for the Fall 2023 semester. Appointees will be asked to register to attend one of the synchronous virtual training sessions offered on:
- Tuesday, Aug. 22, from 4 to 5:30 p.m.
- Wednesday, Aug. 23, from 10 to 11:30 a.m.
Additionally, a training video will be made available on the GA Orientation website for those unable to attend a synchronous session.

Training sessions for Teaching Assistant (TA), Research Discovery (RD) and Research Application (RA) appointees will be held as synchronous virtual events on Wednesday, Aug. 23, at 1 p.m. The Graduate Assistant Orientation website has additional event details.
