Student Associations at University College
Student Associations are
available at all University College Centers.
Both the region's Student Association (SA) and the University of Maine
at Augusta Distance Education Student Government Association (UMA DE
SGA) may be active at your outreach center or site.
Local Student Associations assure an appropriate balance of activities
for all fee-paying students and provide a forum for discussion of local
or University College policy issues affecting the quality of the student's
educational experience. The UMA DE SGA represents UMA students taking
courses at a distance in discussions of governance issues. Representatives
are chosen from this group to represent the entire distant student body
at UMA General Assembly meetings.
Feel free to contact the advisor
in your region to learn more about student associations and how
to participate. Call 1-800-868-7000 for the phone number.
