Council of Graduate Students
The Council of Graduate Students represents grad student needs to the university administration. We like to have CBE representatives on the Council every year, so if you're interested, let Angela Bennett know.
The Graduate School
The Grad School's site is a good resource for general policies and procedures, but your first resource is Angela Bennett, the CBE department's Graduate Program Coordinator.
The Graduate School Handbook
The Graduate School Handbook provides the over-arching rules for degree completion, registration requirements, academic deadlines, petition procedures, and much more. The student is, ultimately, responsible to meet the rules provided in the Handbook.

Transportation and Parking on Campus
Students will be able to park on campus as long as they have a valid parking permit. To obtain a quarterly or annual parking permit, you must visit OSU Transportation and Parking Services. If you have a GRA or Fellowship position, you will need to take a letter from the department with you to purchase a "B" or "WB" permit. More information and pricing is available on the CampusParc website.
Transportation Around Columbus and the OSU Campus
Students will have a small fee included as part of their fees each semester. That fee is used as a part of an agreement with the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) and allows students to ride the bus anywhere in the city of Columbus by showing your BuckID. OSU also has a local bus service (CABS) that runs throughout the campus that students are able to use to get to various destinations around the campus.
