There are a host of ASI-specific and university-wide committees. We welcome you to apply to be part of our committees as a Student At-Large.

All student candidates must be in good standing and must not be on academic, disciplinary or administrative probation.

Application Period: Fall semester until filled

Did you know that there are ways to get involved with Student Government without running for a position and being elected by the student body? You can also have a role in Student Government and have your voice heard by university administration without heading one of our standing or ad hoc committee meetings.

Our ASI Cabinet Committee chairs, university departments, and other campus entities regularly seek student feedback. If you would like to join the pool of Students At-Large, follow the link below and we will reach out to you.

University-Wide Committees

More than 50 committees request student representation from ASI throughout the academic year. The ASI President receives a formal request from the committee, meets with students who have turned in an application, and appoints a student whose interests match the purpose of the committee’s charge.

The types of committees vary in their purpose. Many include topics such as finance, academics, athletics, public safety, landscape and architecture, enrollment, advising, IT governance, personnel search, and performance reviews. This is a great way to learn first-hand how university business is conducted and give the student perspective on important topics.
