Mission Statement
The mission of the Office of Student Activities is to advocate for all students. Student Activities works collaboratively with the Associated Students of the University of Nevada (ASUN) and the Division of Student Services to engage, educate and empower students to take action in the best interest of the student body and the University community. We nurture a culture that fosters learning outside of the academic classroom by creating an educational environment that connects the campus community to the importance of processes that lead to student self governance. Student Activities fosters the development of student’s civic responsibility, responsible citizenship, leadership and personal growth. Dialogue is the heart of our curriculum and our advocacy.
Student Activities provides advising to ASUN’s appointed and elected officers, all clubs and organizations and its publications. Additionally, we provide learning opportunities for students to enhance their overall educational experience through their involvement with the programs and services funded by ASUN, the University and the community.
The Office of Student Activities recognizes that its mission, in cooperation with the learning mission of the University, is accomplished through cultivating a personal standard of ethics and values while providing opportunities that enhance a sense of community between students the campus and the local community.
