As the official voice of UC students, UCSA and UCGPC jointly nominate students to sit on selected Regental Committees as Student Observers. These representatives are invited to the dais during UC Regents meetings to give a 4-minute remark on an agenda item of their choice to their respective committees. In addition, they are granted “backstage” access to the Regents, which provides critical opportunities to advocate for their issues of priority and build relationships with key decision makers.
Student Observers serve one-year terms and are expected to attend every full Board of Regents meeting, for which the the cost of travel, lodging, and food will be covered by the UC Office of the President. Applicants being considered for these positions will first be nominated by UCSA to the appropriate Regental Committee Chair, who then will then make the final decision of whom to appoint.
Descriptions of Regental committees may be viewed here. The deadline to apply is July 13, 2024.
Please email Caroline Nguyen at policy@ucsa.org with any questions.
