Mission
The Communication Commission serves not only as a vital communication link between the Student Senate and the broader student body at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, but also as a hub of engagement and fun. Our mission extends beyond promoting transparency and dialogue; we are committed to enhancing the vibrancy of our campus community and enriching the student experience.
While our primary role involves amplifying the diverse initiatives and programs of the Student Senate to our campus community, we also take pride in organizing lively events that bring students together. We believe in the power of camaraderie and shared experiences, and our events are designed to add a dash of enjoyment to the academic journey.
From the design and distribution of promotional materials to fostering active engagement with both on-campus and off-campus media entities, we maintain a professional, yet approachable, public face for the Student Senate.
In addition to our regular duties, the Communication Commission plays a key role in promoting the Student Senate's annual elections, encouraging active student participation in our democratic process. All the while, we strive to embody the balance of being informed, involved, and importantly, fun-loving college students. We are not just about governance, but about celebrating the spirit of our university community.
