Hey guys, ISGM has it’s own viral videos!! Our videographer Josiah created these videos to promote the International Graduate Student Ministry Sunday Large Group Open House that we had this past Sunday. They were posted on the IGSM Facebook Fan Page. They are based upon the theme of Graduate Student Life. Check out the videos below and leave your comments.
It’s hard to say good-bye to 2009 without recounting the memorable, action-packed and snow-filled Sierra Lodge trip that took place in November 2009. It’s hard to describe the event in words, but hopefully you can get a picture of the trip by looking at the photos above and the video clips below.
On behalf of IGSM, I want to wish you and your family a very happy and blessed year in 2010. We joined the Watch Night service put on by Gracepoint – Berkeley on the last day of 2009 to welcome 2010 through praise, prayer and countdown. This is an annual tradition at Gracepoint as we recounted as a church how God has worked in our midst. It made the turning of the year (or decade) much more meaningful.
On the first day of the new year, IGSM had our annual dumpling making party. Kate, dubbed “The Dumpling Queen” in IGSM, prepared the filling for the dumplings and demonstrated to us how to make dumplings the right way. Some of us are trying pretty hard while others are looking for their own ways to make their perfect dumpling. It was fun and rewarding because we got to eat the fruit of our labor right away.
It would be an understatement to say that we had fun on this LA trip to finish out the year. It was one of the most memorable trip for me because I got to have so much fun with the IGSM members in LA for three days. Some of us drove down to LA from the Bay Area on December 25th. We stayed at our members’ parents’ houses, which reduced the cost as well as allowed us spend more time together.
We went to Disneyland on the 26th and spent a whole day there. Disneyland was indeed the magic kingdom, in which we got to get on rides and watched various shows. Here is a clip of a few of us taking the ride called “Big Thunder.”
Here is the first video that we made for IGSM for the 2004 Graduate Student Welcome Night. Hope none of you ever get an email from your adviser asking you to work on something that is due the next morning. The laboratory scenes are pretty cool. You didn’t think labs can be so awesome right? And wow, what is the Van Dyke method? Well hope you enjoy it. Read more »
Here is the video that we saw this past Friday at the Graduate Student Welcome Night. We made this video for 2006 and 2007 Graduate Student Welcome Nights. Don’t you think Jesse looks so young in this video? And Shufei and Karen are just so cool looking especially as they execute their secret operation to take the paper from Jungmo – poor Jungmo didn’t have a chance. Click Read More to view the video.

I hope you guys enjoyed the past two Graduate Student Welcome Nights. Now, the moment that everybody has been waiting for (or I think many have been waiting for this) – the posting of the GSWN Welcome Night Video. Today, we will post this year’s GSWN video – Graduate Student Life.
It is a video about some of the funny moments of graduate student life. Learn what some of the interesting habits of graduate students such as how they great each other, practical skills they learn and most importantly how to deal with those pesky undergrads 
Hope you enjoy the video and hope to see you at the third and Final Graduate Student Welcome Night this Friday at 6:30pm. Click on Read More to see the video. Read more »
International Graduate Student Ministry (IGSM) is an official graduate student group at UC Berkeley. IGSM started in the fall of 2003 with the vision to help all UC Berkeley graduate students from various countries (including students from the United States) find out the true meaning and purpose of their lives through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Many of us also attend Gracepoint Berkeley, where Pastor Ed and Kelly Kang lead the ministry.
