How to become a part of ASNCu
There are many opportunities for students to be involved and a part of ASNCU. The leadership rolls include positions in the Executive Cabinet (President, Vice President of Academics, Vice President of Environment, Vice President of Activities), Senate (Class Representatives and At Large), and Controller.
To be an Office in an Executive Cabinet or Senate Position, students must attend an informational session hosted by the ASNCU.
