ASB Senate

The members of the ASB Senate form the representative-elected body of the student government, which consists of elected senators from all of the colleges and organizations categories on campus. Their duties include:  writing pieces of legislation that address problems on campus directly or indirectly affecting the student body; researching, writing, debating, and voting on legislation; and, most importantly, acting as a voice for each individual student. Any piece of legislation that is passed has the potential to change the Ole Miss student experience, from something as small as constructing a crosswalk to as significant as changing the grading system.
