In addition, student representatives serve on the College's standing committees to provide a policy-making voice and to share student perspectives on issues and operations throughout the College. These committees include curriculum, animal welfare, student-faculty relations, international, safety, and others.

 

Student organizations routinely host a variety of events (wetlabs, community activities, speakers, etc).  Before hosting an event student organizers should enlist the assistance of their advisors.  Advisors are important resources and are expected to be present for events that do not occur during normal business/school hours.  Appropriate university offices (OASA, Risk Management, Iowa State Police, etc) should be contacted to ensure that the event is compliant with university/college policies.  Any protocols or forms should be consulted/completed prior to the event.
