>>>>> Today we had the student life committee meeting and we have discussed about the potential events that we can have in the months of November and December. I would like to share our thoughts with you and make some notes on it. Due to the request of the council that they need to be a part of decision making, we are asking the council to decide about them. But prior going to review them, please be advised that since the November’s event is VERY close, it cannot wait until council’s approval in the council meeting.

>>>>> For November, we are thinking that having a friendly gathering of graduate students who are concerned about their final exams and their experiences in Canada. They can share their ideas and start talking to one another and ease their pressure. Noting that this event is aimed for the upcoming mental health programs which we are working on and it is a start for that. We are thinking to organize this event in the last days of November before the final exams coming up.
>>>>> 
>>>>> For December, we will be having an end of the semester party. This party could be a bar crawling or a student performance event. In example, karaoke or dancing. We actually have thought about a masquerade party as well. So one of these options will be our end of the semester party. For the rest of the days of December until the university is closed, after the exams, we will be having one or two smaller events in small groups of students. We talk small because we are aware that most of the students are not in Montreal during that time. These events could be throwing axes, rock climbing, escape rooms, etc.
>>>>> 
>>>>> The last thing that I would like to discuss with you is that we can have “deep immersions” which is to bring students together based on their mutual interests. Some students might like movies, some might like soccer, and some might like running. We are planning to start with the running club to see how it will go. The advantage of this is that it does not cost a dime to GSA and it mainly focuses on social interaction between graduate students. Because each one of us might have an interest which we have not find in our close friends. This could bring the chance to find other groups of friends with those interests.
