Graduate Student Showcase Registration Extended
The Graduate College has extended the registration period for the Graduate Student Showcase by a week. Registration will now close on March 17 at midnight.
This year, we are offering separate in-person and virtual events. The virtual event is restricted to students enrolled in an online-only graduate program. All other students will participate in the live event in the Student Union. The same registration process is used for both events and is a two-step process. Register today to indicate your interest in participating! No actual poster submissions are requested at this time.

Graduate Assistant (GA) Separations
As part of the GA Health Insurance Process Improvement Project and FY22 GA health insurance reconciliation, the Controller's Office identified several GAs whose health insurance had not been terminated, due to early separations of GAs that were not communicated to the Graduate College. This resulted in continued charges for health insurance which was absorbed by the university. Going forward, departments will be responsible for health insurance charges if the Graduate College is not informed of the early separation.
All separations must comply with GA policy 7170. Read more about what is required for an early separation on our Intranet Site. Examples of when the submission of an Employee Separation Form is required:- The student voluntarily resigns before their contract ends.
- The student graduates before their contract ends.
- The student is not meeting expectations or is administratively withdrawn from the program before their contract ends.
An Employee Separation Form is not required if the GA contract is ending as planned. The Graduate College will contact the departments to determine if your GA will be rehired after their current end date. It is important that you respond to these emails by the deadlines. If no response is received by the deadline, the GA will be removed from the health insurance plan on the last day of the month when the GA position ends (if the GA position ends 5/6, insurance will term 5/31). Please contact Baily Hazzard at bailyhazzard@boisestate.edu

This workshop will show students effective tools for writing introductions, selecting pieces for portfolios, and writing project proposals and detailed summaries, to name a few.
