GPSG at IUPUI

This weekend marked our final GPSG team bonding at Bradford Woods—a place that has become a quiet witness to our laughter, late-night talks, campfire reflections, and the friendships that grew beyond titles and tasks. As the 2024–25 team, we came here as leaders, but we leave as family.

We’ve poured our hearts into advocacy, lifted each other through challenges, and tried—every day—to make this campus a better place for graduate and professional students. From the Elite 50 to policy meetings, from chilly retreats to long strategy calls, each moment reminded us of the power of showing up for one another.

Now, it’s time to pass the torch.

To the incoming 2025–26 GPSG team: we believe in you. Take this legacy, shape it with your own voices, and never forget the students you represent. Continue the work with courage, creativity, and compassion.

Bradford Woods, thank you for being our pause before goodbye.

With love,
The GPSG 2024–25 Executive Team

Tomorrow is our much-awaited GPSG Social, and we’re going all out! Get ready for an evening of exotic Indian food—featuring everything from aromatic biryani to crispy samosas and a variety of flavorful appetizers. And of course, we’re topping it off with a selection of rich Indian desserts you won’t want to miss!

On April 11, GPSG at IU Indianapolis met with student government leaders from all IU campuses for the second annual State Leadership Conference. The day included keynotes, panels, and roundtables focused on student advocacy and leadership.

Leadership, service, and impact — this year has been a journey. Honored to see GPSG celebrated at the USG Awards Ceremony as we close out a meaningful term together.

As our team’s term comes closer to an end this year, we’re honored to share that the Graduate and Professional Student Government (GPSG) was recognized at the USG Awards Ceremony. This recognition is a meaningful reflection of the work we’ve done to uplift and advocate for graduate and professional students across campus.

Meet some of the GPSG Executive Team playing a vital role in co-hosting the Elite 50 Premier Awards, demonstrating exceptional leadership, organization, and dedication.
Their commitment to elevating the graduate student experience continues to inspire excellence across campus.
