<p>does anyone have any information on how to join student government as a freshman? What does being a member of the class of 2012 council entail?</p>
<p>Last year the 2011 class council planned events targeted to freshmen–a barbecue, get togethers, they made a class t-shirt, etc. (I know this because Orientation sponsored the freshmen council. But really it’s up to the council to decide what they want to do–I know they met regularly.</p>
<p>There are multiple ways of getting involved with student government. There is the SGA and the University Senate–just search on the Maryland website for their pages and they have the info there.</p>
<p>somebodynew- thanks for the input! btw does anyone have any information to share about the Residence Hall Association. I got something in the mail about it recently, but I’m a little bit confused about what types of positions freshmen may run for. Thanks so much!</p>
<p>@redsoxgirl: Exactly what I wanna know. I got it in mail two days back.
Can any freshman join the RHA? Or do you need some skills to become a part of it?</p>
