The Physics Graduate Student Organization, Gradphi, organizes social and cultural activities,
such as the annual Halloween Party, to promote non-academic interaction among physics
graduate students. Gradphi also provides an organized voice for physics graduate students in
the consideration of issues within the School of Physics and Astronomy.

WIPA
Women in Physics and Astronomy The Women in
Physics and Astronomy (WiPA) group was established to raise awareness throughout the entire
school of not only the important contributions women have made and continue to make in physics
and astronomy, but also about the various mechanisms that make it difficult for women to make
those contributions. Planned activities raise the visibility of women within the school and
encourage interactions amongst female graduate students, faculty and/or research associates.
It is hoped that the Women in Physics and Astronomy group will encourage a respectful climate
for women in the school.
