GSA Helps Eliminate Barriers

The U.S. General Services Administration is known for its building management and government procurement efforts. But, GSA also writes the rules that make sure government agency technology is accessible to all Americans.

For many people with disabilities, technology is out of reach. Through the Information Technology Accessibility and Workforce division in GSAs Office of Governmentwide Policy, that is changing. Director Terry Weaver and her team write the rules for 508 compliance issues, teach classes, and more.

For gsa’s Web presence, the GSA web management team helps by offering the skills and information needed to help make technology work better for people with disabilities. Team member Luis Medina even assists with locating resources and understanding the law.

Graduate Student Association at NJIT

As a student government organization, GSA’s mission is to represent the interests of all graduate students in university affairs. GSA maintains relationships with graduate students, our university administrators and officials. This close contact gives graduate students a voice at our university. In addition, GSA’s membership in the National Association of Graduate and Professional Students (NAGPS) gives it a national voice.

All NJIT graduate students are already members of gsa! Portions of the graduate fees you pay with tuition allow you full access to all the benefits that the GSA provides. Student representatives from all graduate programs are the critical element in ensuring student representation. Representatives are made available to their respective constituencies with regular department wide feedback sessions and office hours. Feedback sessions allow all students to express their opinions, comments and difficulties to their representative. Representatives then work with department administration to resolve any issues. This structure coordinates students a powerful voice in their departments and on campus. Representatives are also available with weekly office hours to provide any assistance necessary to their fellow graduate students.
