​

Please note that GPSG is a student organization. We are not qualified to give legal advice over the phone nor are we able to arrange legal appointments at times other than those regularly scheduled. Mr. Marcello and Mr. Feinman are paid by a university account and cannot handle cases against the university. Individual complaints with the university should be addressed to the Dean of your school, appropriate administrator, or if that is not successful, to the Vice-Provost for Graduate Studies. Please let us know whether or not existing university policies are helpful in your case. Complaints that involve the student body at large can be addressed by the Graduate Student Organization in your school or, if of concern to students beyond your school, by the Graduate and Professional Student Government.
