*Nominate a Recent Graduate to the MIT Corporation*

The recent graduate seat on the MIT Corporation offers an exciting

member, who may hold either an undergraduate or graduate degree, is the 
only elected member of the Corporation. If you expect to graduate in 
2007, you are eligible to participate in this year's process.
Nominate an outstanding classmate, recent graduate, or yourself!  Go to

*Students for Graduate Curriculum Options - P/D/F option*

The Students for Graduate Curriculum Options (SGCO) is a focus group 
under the GSC Academic, Research, and Careers (ARC) Committee charged 
with examining whether and how to implement an option for MIT graduate 
students to take classes beyond their core requirement on Pass/D/Fail, 
similar to that available to MIT undergraduate juniors and seniors. We 
are active during Fall 2006 and IAP 2007. Our goal is to present our 
work to the relevant administrative bodies in early Spring 2007.
