Welcome to SASGov
THE GRADUATE STUDENT GOVERNMENT OF THE SCHOOL OF ARTS & SCIENCES
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
Who we are
SASGov is the representative student government body for graduate students in all departments of Penn's School of Arts & Sciences. We support and advocate for graduate students and work directly with SAS administrators and Deans to ensure graduate students’ voices are heard. Our executive board members are elected by the graduate student body. Our general body comprises of graduate students representing around 25 departments in SAS. We meet bi-weekly on Thursdays between 6 and 7:30 PM to discuss various initiatives, priorities, and issues pertaining to SAS graduate students.
What we do
With our understanding for the needs of the graduate student body across SAS, we enact policies to address concerns in academic life, and beyond. We also fund individuals and groups in their pursuits within the Penn community and for their own academic benefit outside of the Penn community. We host a series of social events to foster networking and connections among our student body.
Our meetings are open to all students, held every alternate Thursday between 6 and 7:30 PM.
Get involved with SASGov to explore opportunities and engage with your peers!
