Website Mission Membership Benefits

Mission
Oftentimes at tech schools, students are predominantly tech focused, but, through this club, we are set to change that because knowledge of ethics is a valuable skill set in the workforce that is often overlooked (i.e a graduate in computer science might come across questionable advances with AI, and will know how to speak against or for the advancement ). In this way, participation will help create well-rounded students who are capable of addressing complex ethical issues.

Membership Benefits
Students will gain valuable skills of public speaking, critical thinking, and expanding their knowledge of ethics.

Contact: Jonathan Horak

Mission
The mission of the Graduate Student Advisory Council (GSAC) is to foster the sense of community within the Mechanical, Material, and Aerospace Engineering Department. The mission shall be accomplished by way of organizing communal events such as potlucks, coffee hours, sporting events, friendly competitions, etc. These will be organized on a monthly basis to ensure the faculty, students, and staff of MMAE are interacting in a more convivial manner than typical workplace interactions. As well as organizing events, GSAC is around to provide support to any graduate student within the department. This will include assistance with connecting students interested in research to professors with availability, advertising professors’ research needs, walking students through the process for reimbursement of attending conferences, and all general inquiries into the life of a graduate student. The goal of the club is simple: to create an environment of successful, friendly, Mechanical, Material, or Aerospace Engineers that look out for each other and help each other succeed.

Membership Benefits
First and foremost, the organization will benefit the students by providing reduced price meals monthly. These meals will expose students to different cultures and traditions of other research groups as well as expose them to other research groups and professors who they likely do not get to interact with on a regular basis. This will create a sense of a close-knit community that is looking out for one another. Additional benefits include the availability of support to incoming graduate students, further networking and connections that exist outside of the department/university/academic sphere. First-year graduate students often have a tough time adjusting to the increased demand and strain brought on by a new level of education. GSAC looks to ease this transition period by providing guidance and advice that has been passed down through the years by former GSAC members’ experiences. This is all in the hopes of making the startup period of most graduate students as smooth as possible. The establishment of a community provides access to inter-communal connections. The students who participate in the events hosted by GSAC will have access to talk and bond with other members who may have connections that another student is looking for outside of the community, such as a job opportunity or summer research program.

Mission
The purpose of this organization shall be to provide a chance for those interested in pursuing a legal career and to prepare those for trial etiquette. Illinois Tech as a whole does not have many resources when it comes to the ‘pre-law’ division. The career services doesn’t have any connections or plans for individuals who want to better their applications for law school. Mock Trial is a club that allows students to learn a case given by the American Mock Trial Association and prepare its contents for competitions (or “trials”). At these trials, students compete against other schools and get graded from juries. These juries aren’t ordinary people, but individuals within the legal profession (law students, lawyers, paralegals, etc).

Membership Benefits
This club would benefit students of all backgrounds, including those interested in STEM. For pre-law students, participants are able to develop critical skills such as public speaking, analytical thinking, and legal reasoning. These are essential for success in law school and beyond. Engaging in mock trials also provides a practical understanding of courtroom procedures and the legal system, enhancing their academic studies. For non-pre-law students, mock trial cultivates transferable skills like teamwork, persuasive communication, and effective research techniques, which are valuable in any field. Additionally, the experience boosts confidence and equips students with the ability to articulate their thoughts clearly and argue effectively, making them more competitive in the job market and prepared for diverse professional environments.

The purpose of this organization is to act as the representative and be the Alliance for
Gender and Sexuality on the Illinois Tech Campus. Prism is to facilitate social
awareness of the LGBTQIA+ community on IIT’s campus, assist campus entities to
provide a tolerant and accepting campus environment for those who identify with the
LGBTQIA+ community, and to involve the IIT LGBTQIA+ community with the larger
Chicago and collegiate LGBTQIA+ community. LGBTQIA colloquially refers to the
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, and Asexual communities.
The '+' at the end of the acronym exists to include all Gender and Sexuality Minorities
that may not feel they are a part of the broader LGBTQIA acronym. As language
evolves, oftentimes the terms Queer and GSM (Gender and Sexuality Minorities) are
utilized by Prism to create the most inclusive community possible in our written
communications.
In order to achieve this, Prism’s events and activities are to focus on a three-pronged
approach: Events that create a social or creative safe space to support the existing
queer community on campus; events that provide resources or educate students about
topics relevant to queer people; and events that promote change or visibility to improve
the issues regarding queer people across campus. Reasonable attempts should be
made to have a similar number of these events, though this should not be construed as
a commitment to total equality of the number of these.

Membership Benefits

- Additional accommodations (e.g., Safe Space access outside of standard hours)
