Sound-Offs

One of the easiest ways to make your voice heard is to fill out our bimonthly surveys, called Sound-Offs, from which Student Government gets much of its student feedback.

Senate

Visitors are always welcome at Senate meetings, which take place at 5:15 pm on Tuesdays, twice a month. You may make announcements or ask questions at the very beginning of the meetings, and many senators hang around after meetings to further discuss issues with their constituents. Snacks are provided!

I Heart UT Dallas

I Heart UT Dallas began in the spring of 2009 as a Heart Health Awareness Fair in the Student Union and continues to expand each year. Activities of the fair include a 5k run, fitness topics, stress management consultations, nutrition tips and more.

Volunteer

Student Government participates in and hosts many events throughout the school year. If you are not a senator but would like to help out, let us know!

Become a Senator

The primary way to become a senator is via elections, which take place in March. If you wish to be a part of Senate, you should campaign either as a member of a ticket or independently for a Senate seat. Seats are dictated by school (e.g., EPPS or NSM) and year (e.g., Freshman, Sophomore, etc.). If seats are vacated, some senators may be appointed. See the application for appointment.
