The Graduate Center has gone a long way since last year, when students working at CUNY on scholarships started getting some sort of Health Insurance coverage. However, there are a number of different situations that qualify for Health Insurance eligibility.

A new and important issue has struck hard many students, who for some administrative error see their paychecks delayed.

Eero Laine, the DSC Program representative keeps you updated on both issues at the DTSA website: http://opencuny.org/dtsa/gc-at-large/dsc-doctoral-students-council
