Princeton Experience Survey·November 2004
In March 2003, the University performed a survey of both the undergraduate
classes 2003 and 2005 and of graduate students. The goal of the Princeton
Experience Survey was to address extracurricular and academic life issues
for Princeton students. Including the students who took the survey in
2001, 893 graduate students filled out the survey. Note: all Black and
Hispanic students participated; only ten students were post-enrolled. The
results were made public at the November 8th CPUC meeting. You can access
a PDF version of the Princeton Experience Survey results for graduate
students here.

Proposed
Funding Schedule · January 22, 2004
The GSG Assembly has recently been challenged by the difficulty of trying
to cosponsor an ever-increasing slate of graduate student-run events with
a normal annual budget, as opposed to the past few years when irregular
surpluses swelled the co-sponsorship budget. The tendency to fund
generously suggests that we may deplete that budget before the end of the
fiscal year, and some Assembly members have called for more planning.
Assembly has discussed whether creating a more regulated funding
application schedule would help Assembly decide how to best allocate
funds, as well as conserving the time spent discussing funding requests
during meetings.
This new schedule would take effect on March 2004, and funding requests
for events from March to June would be filed so as to be discussed in the
February meeting.
