The Global Student Council announced its goals and projects for the 2009-10 school year at the Project Launch Fair yesterday, emphasizing its desire to obtain increased financial aid for international students. GSC President Batkhuu Dashnyam said the council plans to focus strongly on obtaining need-based financial aid for students.

Dashnyam, who has been spearheading the organization's financial aid initiative since fall 2007, said the GSC has made significant gains in recent years.
