About

The ASG Associate Member Program is a great way to check out Student Government, build leadership skills and
give back to your community in a meaningful way. As a program affiliated with the Associated Student
Government, we’re going to show you the inner workings of ASG, introduce you to the people who hold office and
encourage you to try out the different branches of government to see which one you have a knack for. At the end
of the year, if you want to run for a position within Student Government, AMP will provide you with the advice
you need to be a strong candidate and help you achieve your goals.
We won’t just be focused on growing your skills, though. We’ll also be putting them to work. The job of any
government is to represent the voices of its people, but that’s pretty tough to do when you have no clue what
those people want. AMP’s second function will be outreach to the student body to invite them to share with us
any complaints, criticisms or ideas that they have for this campus. From there, we’ll get to work with current
senators to write bills and create real change.
By the end of the year you’ll have a pretty good idea of how student government works and the tools to make it
even better. Don’t just go to school, run it.
