- Submit a proposal form to sos@uwec.edu the Sunday before the meeting you'd like to present.
- Proposal presentation is a process, requiring an introduction the first week and then a reintroduction and vote the second week. Proposals over $5000 will then need to be presented to student senate, following the same 2-week process, after passing through the SOS.
