EGO serves all students who are enrolled in the various English graduate programs at IUP. By enrolling in any one of these programs, you are automatically a member. Membership is free and enables you to participate in EGO affiliated workshops, various
social events like the fall picnic, and even our spring conference.
A Word from the Officers:
EGO President Matthew Stumpf:“EGO is a great way for students to find support and help through any of the challenges that graduate school presents. I want to make sure that every graduate student in the English department knows that EGO is here for them as a resource, and to expand the scope of the organization. I believe it is imperative that EGO becomes more involved in the community as well as the university. I am very excited for the opportunity to help this great organization continue on its path of greatness and I look forward to working with everyone in the department.”
EGO Vice President Lauren Shoemaker:"EGO has been an important part of my professionalization at IUP from the start of my time here. I met my friends by attending meetings and getting involved. There are many opportunities to learn from others through workshops and share your own knowledge by leading one. Because our members span different levels and different stages in the degree programs, EGO puts you in contact with other students and faculty that have been through the steps as you encounter them.”
