Use our Doodle Poll to schedule AGES office hours

We discussed at the last AGES meeting the need to have a regular presence in the AGES office. To this end, a Doodle Poll has been created to determine which of you are interested in occupying the AGES office for a few hours each week. If you would like to have your name added to the office-hours schedule, use the Doodle Poll link provided below to give everyone an idea of when you will be in the office. Additionally, send an email (ages@uvic.ca) with the exact hours you would like to be in the office so that they can be added to the schedule.

“AGES (Association of Graduate Education Students) invites you to participate in Doodle poll “Volunteer for AGES office hours”.

The AGES office is quite roomy so don’t be afraid of booking office hours at the same time as someone else!
