ENGLISH GRADUATE STUDENT ASSOCIATION (EGSA)
The English Graduate Student Association (EGSA) exists to represent graduate students in English and to act as their advocate within the department, the university, and the community. The EGSA provides a forum where members may exchange information, focus on common problems in the study and teaching of English, and unite to present proposals, recommendations, or grievances to the Department of English.
Students admitted to the Graduate School of Wichita State University and assigned to the Department of English for advising, automatically become members of the EGSA with voting privileges and the right to attend all meetings.
During the course of each year, the EGSA sponsors a number of events, including MFA candidate readings and a yearly fund-raising auction. The EGSA is involved as well in the planning and selection process whenever students attend the Associated Writing Programs (AWP) annual conference.
