Graduate and Professional Student Appreciation Week (GPSAW) is a week-long celebration of the value and impact of graduate and professional students. First held in 1993, GPSAW was developed by the National Association of Graduate-Professional Students. GPSAW is now celebrated nationally during the first week of April. In 2022, it will be observed Monday, April 4th through Friday, April 8th.
A School of Education student will be randomly selected to receive a $25 electronic gift card every day of the week! Students will be notified via their Redlands email and given the opportunity to select a gift card from a list of stores and restaurants. All current School of Education students are automatically entered in the drawing.
It's time to show your appreciation for your fellow School of Education community members! Nominate a graduate student friend by Friday, April 8th for the chance to win a free dinner for the both of you. The selected winner of this giveaway and their nominee will be notified via their Redlands emails and receive a $50 electronic gift card to the restaurant of their choice.
