Graduate History Association

The Graduate History Association (GHA) brings graduate students in the department together and works to give them a voice in department affairs. Graduate students in the Department are automatically members.

The GHA’s Co-Presidents coordinate all GHA activities, leading monthly meetings, and are the primary student liaisons to the Chair of the Department, the Director of Graduate Studies, and to the faculty in general. The Co-Presidents are elected at the end of each academic year. For the 2024–2025 academic year, Aaron Freedman and Veronica Hylton will serve in the position.
