The Office of Graduate Education & Life will host a social distancing game of bingo, building a gallery of student artwork and hosting a Carruth Center webinar on self-care as part of their annual GSAW, April 13-17. 

The game of social distancing bingo will kick off Monday morning on Twitter. Students will receive a bingo card with activities to check off and then tweet @WVUGradEd using the hashtag #OGELSocialDistanceBingoWVU including a picture of themselves completing the activity. The first 10 students to complete their bingo card will win a one-day free parking pass on campus. For graduating students and online students, a prize of comparable value will be offered. 

Students are also encouraged to share their artwork with OGEL to be housed in a digital gallery and shared with the graduate student community. Those interested can share their work in PDF or JPEG, and links to video content online.

Finally, students can register for a Self-Care Webinar hosted by the Carruth Center on April 17.

GSAW celebrates graduate and professional students’ determination and commitment to higher education and WVU. In providing invaluable services to WVU through their teaching, research, and services activities, these students work very hard, make sacrifices, and often face challenges on the path to earning an advanced degree.
