University of Kansas Student Senate

University of Kansas Student Senate

Student Senate represents University of Kansas students to University administrators, and to the government locally, state-wide, and nationally. Senate oversees student services including the Student Recreation Fitness Center, Watkins Health Center, Safe Ride, and more.

Student Senate allocates a budget of more than $18 million each year paid for by required campus fees(each KU student enrolled in more than 6 credit hours paid $377 alone this semester). It is up to the Student Senate to decide how to allocate this money based on how best to represent student needs.

The members of Student Senate are elected in Student Senate elections each April. In the elections, coalitions form plans on what student services they will focus on as well as propose new ideas they want to see happen at KU. The Rec Center and Multicultural Resource Center, for example, were Student Senate-initiated projects.
