Both the GSS and the Faculty of Graduate Studies have information on how student-supervisor issues can be effectively addressed. As with any situation where challenges arise in the interaction between people, it is best to go to the person directly and have an open and honest discussion. The Ombuds Office can help you prepare for such a meeting and you can also download our Fairness Toolkit on “Managing Difficult Conversations”. If you feel you need an advocate to best present your perspective, contact the GSS and speak with the Advocacy Coordinator.
