UCSU Student Survey Committee

Bill History

Within UCSU, we try to represent student interests and preferences, with the primary task being the funding and oversight of our cost centers. However, we do not have amble information about these preferences in order to make highly informed decisions come budget time. In order to rectify this, we should create an Ad Hoc Committee charged with creating and fielding a high-quality survey to actively reflect campus-wide student views towards UCSU and the cost centers, particularly their support and usage for various cost center programs and level of student fees that go towards the various cost centers. The Committee should create the survey, decide how to administer the survey, and provide a report on survey results. They will need to come before Legislative Council in order to request any necessary funding at such a time as it is necessary.
