Become a Senator
The primary way to become a senator is via elections. The President, Vice President, and most senators are elected in the spring; elections for incoming freshmen and to fill any remaining seats are held in the fall. If you wish to be a part of the Senate, you can campaign for a Senate seat independently or as a member of a ticket; see the Filing Information page for details.
Senate seats are dictated by school (e.g., EPPS, JSOM, NSM, etc.) and classification (e.g., freshman, at-large, graduate).
Seats unfilled after the Fall elections may be filled by appointment. See the application for appointment.
University-Wide Committees
University-Wide committees are made up of faculty, staff and students working together to address issues and concerns ranging from academics to facilities to commencement to parking and more.
Make a difference; contact the SG President if you’re interested in serving.
Elections are held biannually in the spring and fall.
