
Importance: This event impacts the entire Student Body. By informing the Student Body that they have an
opportunity to become a Senator ensures that those students eligible and interested have an opportunity to be
a part of the democratic process. The Student Senate spends 4.5 million dollars and has the potential to
intercede and affect university policy that changes not only the daily interactions of students but also those of
faculty and staff. When Student Government’s membership is strong it secures a healthy relationship with the
University’s administration and fosters an environment that produces happy alumni.
