The Graduate Student Organization (GSO) is dedicated to providing opportunities for community service and fostering social connections between graduate students. In addition, the GSO serves as a channel for graduate students to voice concerns, resolve difficulties and provide feedback on issues that directly affect graduate student life at Marquette University.

The GSO accomplishes this goal by:

• Actively representing graduate students by serving on several committees within the Graduate School and providing support for programs through members of the GSO council
• Advocating for changes that are important to graduate students
• Fostering inter-departmental cooperation and exchange
• Encouraging unity among the graduate students by providing social and service events for graduate students
• Improving the academic environment for graduate students by providing scholarly resources on campus
• Providing social events for graduate students
• Working with Campus Ministry to provide spiritual support for interested graduate students

All part-time and full-time graduate or professional students enrolled at Marquette University are automatic members of the GSO and membership is free.
