Student Senate's Success for the 2009/2010 Year

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Student Senate consists of 13 elected students that make a variety of decisions that influence the experiences students have at Redeemer University College. These decisions, although often voted upon by the entirety of the Student Senate, are created and used by four different committees that the Executive Senate members chair. There are the Activities Committee, the SASC Committee (Spiritual Activities and Services Committee), the Student Affairs Committee, and the Communications Committee. Over the 2009/10 year, Student Senate, along with these committees have grown and influenced the life of students over the past year in new ways.
"Hobbies for Hilltop" was one of the first events the SASC committee held this school year, raising over $5000 for the University Mkar to help pay for their current proffessors to earn their Masters Degrees (Currently many of the proffesors are teaching with only an Under-Graduate Degree). The Activities Committee has hosted a variety of events such as the Spring Banquet, Coffee House every month, and the upcoming April event "Hand on a Car".
The Student Affairs Committee was put into full motion this year connecting the faculty with the students to help with any concerns students have with Sodexo, professors, and much more.
The Communications Committee helped connect the students with what Student Senate does for them through the awareness campaign, which involvedĀ  giving out free "Student Senate" pens, as well as handing out a bag of cookies and a brochure introducing what Senate does for them to each dorm.
Besides Senate itself, there are many Senate and Student-runĀ  clubs that engage the students in various activities. The newest of these for the winter term of 2010 include the "Hymn-Sing Club" and the "Airswitch Club". The 2009/10 academic year has been a very successful year for Student Senate as it has influenced a number of positive changes that help make Redeemer University College the succesful academic institution that it strives to be.
