Anthropology Graduate Student Union
The Anthropology Graduate Student Union (AGSU) is an officially recognized, chartered organization composed of anthropology graduate students at the University of New Mexico. We provide representatives to the Graduate and Professional Student Association (GPSA) council and liaise with the department faculty and Chair to advocate the needs and interests of anthropology graduate students. We also seek to provide professional development experience by organizing an annual research conference and skills workshops.
