Steering Committee Suggested Goals/Committee Goals

A Committee Representation Preference Form will be sent to already-elected student senators during the first week of the semester, and to the remaining roster of senators culled from Club officers by the end of September. Students will be given link to your committee's webpage, so make sure the webpage has chair/secretary contact information on it, including meeting times where possible
  • Reach out to Steering Committee if you encounter any difficulties in coordinating with Marketing, OAA, Student Affairs in advertising Spring 23 and Fall 23 scholarships well in advance
