Since the beginning of the pandemic, student representatives of graduate organizations have regularly met with Northwestern and The Graduate School administrators to communicate needs unique to graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Through this joint effort, the Northwestern University COVID-19 Committee advocated for and provided assistance to members of the TGS community, Ph.D. candidate Eva Morgun said. “We don’t have a president or a chair. We really have many students who all ended up having their specialties. And each person brings their own expertise to the table,” Morgun said. “It’s really a collaborative environment with a lot of very great hard-working individuals.”
