A MESSAGE FROM THE VICE CHAIR

Dear Students,

The USS is excited to be back this semester and working to support our students. Personally, I’m especially excited about all of the different programming around the university this semester. Our first Sunday Session of the semester will be February 25th along with lots of exciting events happening on campus. We’re really looking forward to our upcoming town halls this semester, which we will be releasing information about in the coming weeks. Feel free to reach out to your senators or speak to them during their office hours, which can be found on our website. 

Sincerely, 

Spencer Sher
