Welcome to the MCGSS website! MCGSS is the voice of graduate students on the Macdonald campus. Our primary objective is to provide a positive and enjoyable studying environment for graduate students on campus. We are for students, run voluntarily by students. MCGSS brings forward the concerns of graduate students at all levels of administration. We are closely affiliated with MCSS that governs the interest of all students on campus and with the PGSS that represents all graduate students at McGill University, in terms of issues, events and administrative concerns. MCGSS also organizes many leisure and informative activities, including annual BBQ's, Pub Nights, Career counseling, guest speakers, day trips to Ottawa for Canada Day and Quebec City for Carnival, skiing and of course, the sugar shack!

This site is designed to provide you with all of the information about MCGSS including the upcoming events schedule, potential funding for conferences and useful links. If you have any comments or suggestions please contact: Alyssa MacLeod

Be sure to visit the graduate student lounge! Located at R3-046, this lounge includes services such as TV, VCR, radio, microwave, refrigerator, comfy couches, magazines and games.

Have you ever wondered how Mac is different from downtown?
