ASUA is expected to support the drafted fee statement, which looks to garner student opinion more efficiently via survey vote, at Wednesday’s meeting.
Sen. Jeff Adams drafted the senate’s statement of support, writing “”the university currently does not have a consistent method for student consultation in the fee setting process, and the Associated Students of the University of Arizona fee statement outlines a fair and legitimate form of consulting students.””
At the meeting, the Senate will also announce its search for an ASUA government affairs and policy director. The person would keep the president abreast of local and state politics and attend meetings such as those of the Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and the Tucson City Council.
ASUA government affairs and policy director would also be in charge of campaigning on local issues that impact UA students.
