You can also serve as an off-body member on a number of different committees. This is a great alternative if you do not have the time to commit every week! Please contact sga@uncw.edu if you are interested or want more information!

There are several Chancellor level committees where students input and feedback is critical. If you are interested in sharing your voice with administration and representing your fellow students, contact the Student Body President and they will share with you the opportunities available to get involved.

Some of these Chancellor-level committees include, but are not limited to:

  • Campus Climate Committee (serves to provide feedback on diversity and inclusion initiatives across campus)
  • Athletic Council (provides feedback about athletic policies and practices)
  • Campus Recreation Committee (offers feedback about campus recreation programs, services, funding, and facilities)
