Commuter Student Association:
You can have a voice in issues and policies that affect the entire student population! The Commuter Student Association is a student-run organization committed to representing the needs, interest and concerns of the large and diverse commuter constituency. All commuters are invited to become active members of this group. Your voice matters, so consider getting involved! Look for posted meeting locations and times at Commuter Central located in the EMU Student Center.
Calling all commuters: your help is needed in the Commuter Students Association (CSA).
The mission of the CSA is to provide an advocating avenue for the ideas and concerns of the vast majority of EMU's campus, commuters, to the administration. The CSA has not existed on this campus for a few years and your voice is needed NOW. If you are interested in joining this extremely important group feel free to contact CSA President Timinica Smith at tsmith45@emich.edu, Vice President Bridget Carney at bcarney@emich.edu or Commuter Central at commuter_central@emich.edu.
