About
Mission and Organization
After forming a partnership student government with UISG, the undergraduate student government, ECGPS became a completely autonomous governing body in early 2009. In March, 2009, ECGPS subsequently received the authority to allocate graduate and professional student funds from the Student Activity Fee, an account that all students contribute to each year to enrich life here on campus. These funds had previously been budgeted by UISG.
The vision of the Executive Council of Graduate and Professional Students is to become an efficient, de-centralized government that obtainins consensus amongst the diverse member governments of the ECGPS only to perform the functions relevant to all our constituents. Our priorities are supporting academics, scholarship, public service, and quality-of-life programs for graduate and professional schools in all disciplines.
