LSU Committees

Latino Students Advocacy Committee (LSAC):

The purpose of the advocacy committee is to include, empower, and educate members of the campus community on the political issues affecting the Latino community at large. Two years ago, LSAC was successful in advocating for the creation and hiring of a coordinator for Latino Students Services and Advocacy to address the student affairs needs of all Latino students. This year the LSAC will take on a new project to pursue positive change in the Latino campus community in conjunction with the University of Maryland administration.

Fundraising:

In order to continue providing the student body with diverse events, LSU has fundraisers such as car washes, working concession stands at sporting events, fundraising dinners, Latin American food sales, and raffles. The fundraisers not only increase LSU funds but are also a great way to get to know the LSU members!

Freshman Council:

In its fourth year of exsistence, this program was established to give incoming freshmen the chance to develop leadership skills in preparation for taking positions on the future LSU executive board. These skills are developed through the planning of a spring event. Last year the freshmen council put on the incredibly successful and entertaining "Battle of the Classes" spring event.
