Thank you for your interest in Student Senate. Student Senate is an exceptional method to enhance your educational experience and to grow as a leader. Many Senators agree the best way we grow is by learning to serve others.

 

     Student Senate represents student interests by recommending proposals to the University and UW System Administration, Eau Claire City Council, and the state and federal governments. We allocate nearly 2.5 million dollars in segregated fees to Organized Activities, including Student Legal Services, UWEC Athletics, Student Health Service, and many others. Different commissions within Senate also control another 2.5 million dollars with the Information Technology Budget and Differential Tuition. Aside from budgets and advocating, Student Senate plans events throughout the year including a Convocation Ice Cream Social, the Michael Noll Fun-Run, Human Rights Awareness Week, and countless others mentioned in this brochure. There is a myriad of opportunity in which you can serve fellow students.

 

     There are many openings to join Student Senate. It is open to all students enrolled in at least six credits and in good academic standing.

 

     Once you have decided to join Student Senate, come to the Student Senate Office, located in Davies 132B to fill out the proper applications. If you have any questions, feel free to talk to any of the Senators around the office. If you have any problems, concerns, or just want to chat, please contact us at any time. Thank you for your interest!
 

Sincerely,
