The Student Life Committee (SLC) consists of 9 members. It was created after the 2014-2015 constitutional review in order to improve continuity and allow for intersectional student life subcommittees to be under the same committee. This committee merges the Student Affairs Committee and the Sustainability, Finance, and Facilities Committee into one. In our current work, SLC has nine subcommittees that work with various campus offices which include: Auxiliary Services & Bon Appétit, Physical Plant & Facilities, Freeman Athletic Center, Gordon Career Center, Davidson Health Center, Transportation Services, Public Safety, Residential Life, Office of Student Involvement (OSI), Office of International Student Affairs (OISA), and the Office of Student Affairs.
