ABE GSA Board 2017-18 smoothly finished their term on April 11, 2018, and new officers were elected during the election that evening. The former board was successful in bringing many new activities to bridge the gap between undergraduates, graduates, and visiting scholars. The seminar on reducing the indifferences in research groups, cookouts, movie night, and presentations from deans and senior administration are just a few of the events held in the ABE Building. The new board is in full swing and filled with enthusiasm to serve the graduate community in ABE.
