What is ASG?

ASG is your Associated Student Government, a group of hardworking undergraduate students who devote themselves day after day to work on your behalf – to discuss and act on ways that make Northwestern an overall better experience. ASG works along with the NU Administration to bring change to Northwestern, but we also directly provide services to students. ASG works on everything from student life to academics, from NU relations with Evanston to advising student groups.

Why should I care?

We have the resources to affect change, including dozens of dedicated students from across campus and regular contact with administrators. ASGʼs Senate is the only group on campus that speaks for the entire student body and brings diverse groups together to discuss mutual concerns. Also, the Senate allocates the Student Activities Fee, more than $1.3 million annually to student groups on campus.

How can I help?

Learn more about ASG’s Committees.

Every student at NU is represented by at least one ASG Senator, through dorm representatives, student groups, Greek life, etc.

Tell ASG your thoughts by going to office hours, talking to your Senator, or writing a comment on the ASG website.

Plus, ASG is always looking for new members. If you have an idea, join us to make it happen. See the committee pages listed on the right-side of this page for details on how to get involved.
