MUSAGA

MUSAGA, which stands for the Miami University Student Affairs Graduate Association, is the student organization for graduate students in SAHE. MUSAGA plans and provides opportunities for SAHE graduate students to transition into grad-school life and living in Oxford. These opportunities allow for cross-cohort connections and fun outside of the classroom/professional environment! As a supplement to our SAHE coursework, MUSAGA recognizes the importance of professional development as student affairs educators. We collaborate and host a number of professional development opportunities throughout the year, including resumeé reviews and mock conference workshop presentations. Lastly, MUSAGA provides an outlet for our community to celebrate the many occasions and successes that take place throughout the year!
