Advocating for You

Your Student Senate is the Student Government branch responsible for advocating for students’ rights and interests, allocating funding to student organizations for events and programs, chartering new student organizations, confirming presidential nominations, and more.

The Student Senate is composed of senators representing either their individual colleges or the student body at-large. Membership in the Student Senate is a great way to serve your fellow students while gaining valuable experience in public speaking, debate, developing policy, handling budgets and funding requests, and working with diverse stakeholders. If you are interested in joining, you should contact the vice president of legislation, or visit the Student Government Association in Walb Union, Room 225.
