ASUU is now accepting applications for students to serve on University Committees, which are subcommittees of the Academic Senate.
Every year, about 80 students are appointed to these committees by the Associated Students of the University of Utah Academic Affairs Board to work with faculty and staff, making university policies and working on special projects.
“It’s a great opportunity to work with administrators and see how the university functions,” said Katie Miller, director of ASUU Academic Affairs.
Students can apply for 23 different committees. Some committees include the Campus Health and Safety Committee, the Parking Violation Appeals Committee, the Undergraduate Council and the University Diversity Committee. Committees meet as needed, with some meeting monthly and some only once during the academic year.
Applications are available in the ASUU office, Union Room 234, and are due Aug. 31.
