The Office of Graduate Education and Life welcomes University graduate students and the WVU community to celebrate Graduate Student Appreciation Week beginning Monday (April 1) through April 5.
Graduate and professional students can attend social and wellness activities that show appreciation for their contributions and impact. Activities include free professional headshots, Carruth Center activities, fun giveaways, a night out at Keglers, bowling in the Mountainlair and more.
View the full lineup of activities.
Graduate students are also encouraged to participate in the daily GSAW Trivia Challenge on Grad Ed’s social media accounts. They simply need to answer the trivia question correctly through direct messaging. All correct answers will be entered into a raffle to win prizes, from gift cards to dining points to favorite WVU swag. Winners will be notified through DM.
Participants can play GSAW trivia on Instagram @wvu_ogel and X, formerly Twitter, @WVUGradEd.
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 service, these students work hard, make sacrifices and often face challenges on the path to earning an advanced degree.
Help us celebrate by recognizing your graduate and professional students in class, during labs, on social media, in newsletters or through fun activities.
