History Graduate Student Association

The History Graduate Student Association is a representative body that advocates for the scholarly needs of graduate students in History at the College. We organize social events and forums that provide students an array of opportunities to discuss their careers and intellectual pursuits with their colleagues, faculty, and scholars in the wider academy. We are a voice for students to the faculty and administration, a way that students' concerns and ideas may reach those who need to be aware. Our utmost objective is to create and foster a warm intellectual community that enhances life not only among the History Graduate Program, but among the Lyon Gardiner Tyler Department of History and William & Mary.
