The History Graduate Student Organization (HGSO)
What is HGSO?
HGSO is an organization open to all graduate students
in the department of history at Texas Tech University. The goal of HGSO
is to give graduate students a more clear and defined voice within the
history department; to create an all-inclusive organization, where all
students affiliated with the department have a place to congregate and
voice concerns (MA, PhD, funded and unfunded); to foster professional
development among graduate students through workshops, seminars,
colloquiums, and other developmental activities; to facilitate
communication between the graduate students and the faculty; and to
promote an atmosphere that will strengthen bonds between graduate
history students, and that will help us complete our journey, as
individuals and historians.
Who is a Member?
All currently enrolled graduate students in the Department of History are members of the organization and welcome to attend its events.
