Elections Explained
Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) is governed by the ASI Board of Directors. The ASI Board of Directors and professional staff members manage the day-to-day operations of the corporation providing CPP students, faculty, and staff dynamic programs and services. The purpose of ASI Elections is to elect student leaders composed of the ASI President, Vice President and Senators that sit on the ASI Board of Directors in Student Government. Student Government Elections occur annually in spring semester online.
