Senator Application

“Being a student senator has allowed me to network with other like-minded students and become more involved on campus. It is such an amazing feeling to know that I, along with the rest of UMSG Inc, have impacted the entire campus and have truly made a difference”

– Senator Maria Maffucci

“Being a senator is an extraordinary honor and responsibility, particularly being college undergraduates. You get a limited number of years at UMaine and to involve yourself in the governing body and help facilitate positive growth of the entire University is a reward beyond calculation. You represent, advocate for, and speak on behalf of your peers in numerous issues crucial to making UMaine the college of our hearts.”

-Senator Samuel Borer
