What is JMC Student Senate?
The James Madison College Student Senate is comprised of elected individuals of each major (SRP, PTCD, IR, CCP). The amount of chairs for each major is determined by enrollment rates of students every year. The elected body is responsible for event planning, student relations, and serving as a voice for the JMC student body in admistrative decisions.
How do I become a Student Senator?
