Fair Pay for GTAs 2018-2019
Please complete this survey if you are currently a GTA or were a GTA at King's in 2017-2018. This survey uses the same questions from 2015, so we'll be able to track how GTA experiences have changed or remained the same since then.

If you have not been a GTA and you'd like to share your reasons why, please head to this survey: https://goo.gl/forms/ahwpyU4m6PgB0uEB3
