Associate Member Program

The Associate Member Program is geared toward improving the campus community and providing interested students with the tools and knowledge necessary to become involved in student government and other service-based organizations on campus. AMP shows the associate members the inner workings of ASG, introduces them to the people who hold office, and encourages them to try out the different branches of government. By participating in AMP, associate members have the opportunity to learn about leadership on campus, improve their professional skills, plan and carry out campus-wide events, and of course make many new friends and positive memories!

Associate members also serve as vital agents of ASG by reaching out to students, faculty, and organizations to identify unaddressed issues on campus and develop ideas to combat them. They are given the opportunity to work with ASG senators and leaders to draft legislation and implement their solutions.

Involvement

Serve as an agent of ASG and learn about opportunities for service and leadership within student government, Registered Student Organizations, and the surrounding community.
