Council on Student Affairs

Purpose

The purpose of the Council on Student Affairs is outlined in Faculty Rule 3335-5-484. As a Subcommittee of University Senate, the Council serves as the principal link between student government and the faculty and administration. The Council has the legislative authority and responsibility to make regulations pursuant to rules of the University faculty, the bylaws and the statutes insofar as they pertain to students.

The Council is also an advisory body to the Senior Vice President for Student Life. In this capacity, the Council makes recommendations to the Vice President regarding the operations of the Office of Student Life.

Through the legislative and advisory roles of the Council, students, faculty and staff deliberate and make decisions that influence the quality of student life on campus. The Council is also a forum that encourages a sense of community among students, faculty and staff.
