History of the GSA
GSA History
Below is a small part of the history of the Graduate Student Association at NMT. Many of the details have been lost to time but what we do know is that the GSA was largely reformed in 2011. We have been going strong since then, advocating for graduate students at NMT and hosting many fun events!
Past Officers
Officer records from 2009–2010 through 2026–2027. “Not recorded” indicates missing information, not necessarily a vacant position. Earlier titles are included alongside their current equivalents. Each row represents an academic year; columns show the officer positions.
