Senior Class Office
About the Senior Class Office
The senior class officers comprise two elected officers, the president and vice president, and four selected positions: communications; events; philanthropy; and a Winter Grad Chair. Elections and interviews took place in the spring semester prior to the beginning of their service in the fall of their senior year.
As part of Student Affairs, the officers also partner with the Wisconsin Foundation and Alumni Association (WFAA) and the Office of the Chancellor. Senior class officers help plan Winter and Spring Commencement, as well as senior social events.
