Mission
The mission of the Student Advisory Council is to support the Division of Enrollment
and Student Affairs’ strategic plan, Thinking 2024, which helps to develop and empower students to be engaged
and responsible contributors in their campus, local, and global communities. The Student
Advisory Council will advise the Division's leadership to create transformative and
inclusive opportunities for students through experiences and services in an equitable
and welcoming environment.
Council Membership
- The meetings are hosted by the Vice President for Enrollment and Student Affairs who
requests feedback, views, and recommendations from a variety of student members who
represent the varied colleges, organizations, and students on campus. The primary purpose of the group is to make suggestions
on ways to increase student learning and improve student life at Augusta University.
- This group will discuss issues and suggestions relating to student life and engagement,
including programming, services, policies, and other university initiatives. Members
will serve as trusted advisors to the Division of Enrollment and Student Affairs and
will be well-informed on issues at the university. Members are expected to share
the information with the student-body at large to elicit campus-wide student opinion.
- The members of the council will be selected based upon their application materials.
Our goal is to select a diverse group students from various colleges and majors. Forty applicants in total will be selected to serve on this council. Each member will serve a two-year term on the council. During the first academic year,
one-half of members will serve a one-year term.
Meetings
There will be two (2) meetings each semester (fall and spring). Meetings will take place on Microsoft Teams. Council members will receive regular emails that will include the date, relevant information,
location, and minutes of each meeting. To remain in good standing, members must attend three (3) of the four (4) meetings
per year.
Expectations
Selected students are expected to arrive on time to the meetings and to participate
in the discussions, providing relevant and insightful information on behalf of their
peers. Members must attend three (3) of the four (4) meetings per year.
