Committees monitor on-going governmental operations, identify issues suitable for legislative review, gather and evaluate information, and recommend courses of action to the Senate. Each of our 6 committees take on special projects that correlate with their specific fields. While it is required that each USG Senator serves on at least one committee, you do not have to sit on USG to serve on a USG committee- these are open to all UNE Undergraduates. If you are interested in serving on a committee, please reach out to the committee chair for more information!
In special circumstances, there may be a unique opportunity to be part of an Ad-hoc committee. Ad-hoc committees are created for special projects, and are usually chaired by the Vice President. Some Ad-hoc committees include Veteran's Day.
