Graduate Nursing Students Organization (GNSO)

GNSO officers are elected annually in the fall term. Each graduate program can elect a program representative to the GNSO Council, to share information and concerns from the program, and to take back to the program information learned at GNSO meetings. GNSO members are available to mentor new students. GNSO also contributes money to host recognition events for each year's graduates.

A representative from GNSO attends the University-wide Graduate and Professional Student Government (GPSG) meetings to help nursing students obtain resources available at the university level.
