[edit] Council of Graduate Students

Current Representative: Tim Salo

From http://www.cogs.umn.edu: The Council of Graduate Students (COGS) represents the interests of all graduate students at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. It is our mission to work with the all components of the University community - most specifically the Graduate School and central administration - to make sure the needs of graduate students are known and addressed.

COGS is an open and democratic organization comprised of graduate students from across the University. COGS provides opportunities for graduate students to participate actively in University administrative and policy-making decisions, as well as social and cultural programming and job training. The backbone of the organization are Department Representatives, composed of students selected by all degree-granting programs at the University. COGS also elects representatives to serve on University-wide committees, on Policy and Review Councils, and in the University Senate. Together, we represent over 10,000 students.
