Dear WWU Geology department,

Good morning and happy Thursday! The SACNAS club is hosting an event open to all STEM students called STEM into Grad School that will be held on Wednesday, May 26th, from 5:00 - 6:30 p.m. We hope this event will help interested students learn more about graduate school as well as the application process.

We wanted to reach out to you in hopes of spreading the word! If you can, we would greatly appreciate it if you could please forward the information below, along with the poster, to your current students and other faculty members. Thank you so much for your time and please feel free to send an email to this address if you have any questions!

Sincerely,
Courtney Yoshiyama
WWU SACNAS Event Coordinator

Hey STEM students!

Are you interested in going to graduate school but are not sure whether it is the right fit for you or do not know where to start looking? Learn more about student and faculty experiences as well as how the application process looked like for them at the STEM into Grad School event, organized by the SACNAS club! This event will be held virtually through Zoom on Wednesday, May 26th, from 5:00 - 6:30 p.m. It will begin with a brief informational session followed by a Q&A period where students can ask questions and hear from faculty and student panelist members. For student panelists, this consists of soon-to-be Western alumni that will be attending graduate school as well as current graduate students. The meeting invitation can be found under the signature or in the poster.

Interested students can sign up through the 2021 STEM into Grad School Google Form<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLSe5EtjVJGHZp7Q4DR5VkGdvX1PSIj1NXzs2TBwwF_QzagWbOg%2Fviewform%3Fusp%3Dsf_link&data=04%7C01%7Cdebari%40wwu.edu%7C55b4fb8c6e9d423fde8208d9162acd7f%7Cdc46140ce26f43efb0ae00f257f478ff%7C0%7C0%7C637565195349294997%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=6VyLDS1oN1SlB7q0REzXI2oMomE7PmZZdjA5%2Baf%2Bd7o%3D&reserved=0>. While this form is not required to attend, it will help us gauge the number of students that may be attending, and it allows you to submit questions you may already have for our panelists. Examples of questions our panelists could help address include "when would be a good time to start looking at graduate programs?" and "how much does it generally cost to attend graduate school? Are there research stipends or scholarships available?"

A list of submitted questions as well as confirmed panelist members can be viewed on the 2021 STEM into Grad School Q&A Google form<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2F12ivxdEQl7gCtgFLqaF1NGaKrN95XwK2Sopzj1Fit8s0%2Fedit%3Fusp%3Dsharing&data=04%7C01%7Cdebari%40wwu.edu%7C55b4fb8c6e9d423fde8208d9162acd7f%7Cdc46140ce26f43efb0ae00f257f478ff%7C0%7C0%7C637565195349304953%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=jC1H4vGbpO97%2B81tvyDqdaL10%2BUFqrL6XI8KyQlJow8%3D&reserved=0> and will be frequently updated leading up to the day of the event.
