Make Your Voice Heard - Join Student Senate Today!
The student senate represents the interests of the student body to the administration. By having members on the Safety Committee, participating in hearings, and holding other committee positions, the voice of our students are heard. The student senate also provides leadership to meetings of the student body, creates legislation concerning student activities, and looks for new way to involve students in campus life. Finally, the student senate provides guidelines and support for all approved clubs and organizations which may be formed on campus.
Being actively involved in college life can help you be more successful in your classes, build a stronger resume, and even aid in paying for school. Don’t just complain: do something about it; work with the student body and administration to make positive changes to your college. Learn communication, leadership, and diplomatic skills which you will use the rest of your life.
