“The Student Life Committee will concern itself with a holistic understanding of students’ needs, including their academic, social, and emotional well-being, and will focus on ways in which it can support their thriving. As students experience university life differently, the Committee will annually reflect upon the voices of distinct populations that should be elevated during the academic year to better understand the variance in their experience. The committee will annually provide clear guidance and recommendations for Senate constituents on how best to support students’ holistic needs. Members of this committee will engage with students in meetings, events, and in other contexts within and outside of committee meetings to better learn of students’ experiences, and the resources available to support them. The Committee will collaborate closely with relevant administrators, and staff, inviting them (in coordination with Agenda Committee) to participate ex officio.”
(From the BYLAWS OF THE SENATE OF SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY, As amended during the 2023-24 session of the University Senate, revising Article IV, Section 1 and Section 9, and Article V, Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13.)
