UNMC Student Senate

The UNMC Student Senate exists for the purpose of influencing University policy and promoting the interests of all students attending UNMC. As the official representative of the student body, the Senate consists of senators from each educational unit of UNMC.

The UNMC Student Senate office is located on the second floor of Williams Science Hall. Meetings are held monthly and are open to all students and to the public. If you have questions about the Student Senate, please contact the current president or faculty advisor.

BOSS Proposals

Class presidents or vice-presidents automatically serve as senate representatives upon election. At-large senators are elected each year in November by their fellow students in Allied Health Professions, Graduate Studies, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Public Health. The president of UNMC Student Senate serves as a non-voting member of the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska.

Student Senate BOSS Proposals: NOW OPEN!

This is a fantastic opportunity for Student Senate to support you. BOSS stands for Benefiting Organizations through Student Senate. BOSS proposals are a formal means by which Student Senate can fund student organizations and initiatives.

Though criteria are adjusted year-to-year, the only requirement of these proposals is that they must be open to and primarily benefit students. Proposals are submitted by individual students and are evaluated by the UNMC Student Senate Issues Committee. We will evaluate these proposals as they are submitted throughout the year and allocate funds as able. Proposals are accepted and reviewed on a rolling basis; submit yours here!
