The Education Committee

Welcome to the Education Committee (UU)!

Being a student at SSE entails many things, from dancing in the rotunda to studying in the atrium. Everyones’ experience here will look different, but what binds us all together is our education. Some of the strongest bonding experiences with your classmates will come when rushing to complete a group project or struggling with homework together. The Education Committee works to ensure that the education continues to be outstanding and that SSE is a good place to be a student through systematic feedback collection, faculty correspondence, representation in various forums. Educational coverage is the core of our association, and our close collaboration with SSE offers unmatched opportunities in making your voice heard, so don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever have any concerns!
