We Represent All Students
Our goal is to be a safe space for all students, regardless of your race, religion, color, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, age, height, weight, genetic information, marital status, disability, and veteran status. We follow the Michigan Tech Equal Opportunity Statement, and fight for students who feel that they are underrepresented in the overall view of the university.
We stay diverse and representative of the Student Assembly through our various representative positions and elections. It's your job as an undergraduate to vote for who will represent you!
USG is For Everyone
The Undergraduate Student Government at Michigan Technological University is a collection of your undergraduate peers that represent you, the student, when making decisions about different aspects of student life.
We provide funding to Registered Student Organizations (RSOs) through the Student Activity Fee, run the Holiday Break Buses, meet with administration to discuss student concerns, and otherwise find ways to improve how we represent you, the undergraduates of Michigan Tech!
We are made up of administrative advisors, a president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, college representative, school-year representatives, at-large representatives, and associate members. We also meet with the Dean of Students, Student Affairs, and President Koubek frequently to voice your concerns and our advocacy.
We Fight For You
Michigan Technological University exists because of the dedicated students that come to Houghton, MI, and you deserve a voice in how the university interacts with students. From RSOs to campus initiatives, the Undergraduate Student Government represents all undergraduate students, and we want to hear from you about your most pressing issues!
We are an Apolitical Body
While each of our representatives may have differing political alignments and views, the Undergraduate Student Government as a whole is apolitical, meaning that we do not take action or alignment based on a political viewpoint. We strictly follow our Constitution and Bylaws, and make decisions that are representative of the Student Assembly.
We highly encourage voter engagement and overall understanding of how changes can impact a student, but we stray away from making any decisions or statements on behalf of one political side or the other.
