  • Get Oriented @ IU Library Information Fair:

    • Held in the lobby of the H B Wells Library, 'Get Oriented @ IU' is GPSO's annual orientation for new graduate and professional students. Organized in partnership with the University Graduate School and IU Libraries, this event provides an excellent opportunity for numerous campus and community organizations to introduce their activities and resources to new graduate students. The principal goal of the information fair portion of orientation is to gather together the most important services, organizations, and activities that new graduate students need to know about in one convenient location. Other annual GPSO orientation events include the new graduate and professional student lunch held in the Woodlawn shelter at nearby Bryan Park. This is a family and pet friendly event, with food provided courtesy of the GPSO. Check back later this summer for exact dates and times.
