Associated Student Government

 

Associated Student Government (ASG) serves as the official voice of the student body at Emporia State University, whether it is to other students, faculty, administrators, or the Kansas Board of Regents. ASG accomplishes this through its President, Vice President, staff, and a 27-member Student Senate.

The Student Senate meets every other Thursday evening and is composed of representatives from the different academic schools or colleges. Legislation is debated and sent to appropriate administrators, faculty, and students. ASG meetings are open to everyone and attendance is encouraged.

In addition to the Student Senate, ASG provides a number of services for the campus community. ASG allocates more than $140,000 in student fees to recognized student organizations on a yearly basis.

Free legal counseling is provided by ASG to students with a valid Emporia State University I.D. A practicing Emporia attorney is available for consultation with any student on Monday and Thursday afternoons. No names are taken, and the service is completely confidential.

The Big Event is a community service event coordinated by Associated Student Government that will occur once in the fall semester and again in the spring semester. Students will participate in several large community projects as a way to give back to the Emporia community.

A Photographic Poster Printer is available to print from an electronic file to 18", 24" and 42" finished widths. Call the MU ID/Ticket Office at 620-341-5859 for additional information.

ASG will help students with any problems they might encounter while at Emporia State University. If a student has concerns, ASG stands ready to help refer the student to proper avenues for assistance and clarification.

ASG offices are located in the Center for Student Involvement on the Memorial Union Mainstreet, or call 620-341-5481.
