The English Graduate Student Society (EGSS) is a society for the promotion and support of the English graduate ¼ø»Æʦapp at ¼ø»Æʦapp.
EGSS organizes an open biannual conference every Fall and Spring semester for those within the graduate program to showcase their current academic research and writing. A biannual picnic is also organized for ¼ø»Æʦapp, alumni, faculty, friends, and family to get together off campus and welcome incoming English graduate ¼ø»Æʦapp.
Through these events,ÌýEGSS is able to benefit ¼ø»Æʦapp's English graduate program by providing opportunities for ¼ø»Æʦapp to share work, experience public reading, sit on a conference panel (a first for many), and to bring lovers of language together.
