Before you vote, learn more about your student democratic body here. [[Student Senate]] serves two primary purposes.  First, it is the student body's legislative body for student affairs, most notably the distribution of [[club]] budgetary money and disbursement of the Senate Discretionary Fund.  Second, it is the students' primary advocate for student interests to the [[faculty]], [[staff]], and [[administration]], and to that end passes a lot of resolutions and conducts a lot of committee work making recommendations for reform.
