Social Commitee

Chair: Ronnie Bryan
Members: Rosemary Rohde (URS Advocate), Chris Kovalchick
Meetings: noon on the 2nd Thursday of the Month

Giving you a good time, every time

The social committee works to improve the social network of graduate students at Caltech, and also hosts joint events with undergraduates. The social committee organizes the social aspects of New Student Orientation. Each month the social committee is in charge of the Graduate Underground Social Hour (or GUSH) which is the third Friday of each month at varied locations. This 2-3 hour event is a good opportunity to blow off steam after a hard day's work. In addition to this, 4 times a year we host a term party, generally joint with a club or group, where grad students can let their hair down and get a little bit wild. This past year we have placed an emphasis on off-campus trips, and have secured funding for these events during the next year. We've also worked hard in the past year forging connections with other schools, and will hopefully have joint events with the Pasadena Arts College, USC, and UCLA in the coming year.
