LEAD: MAKE YOUR MARK!
Student government offices on both the Yakima and Grandview campuses offer students the opportunity to get involved and help ensure that all YVC students have a voice. Help make decisions by participating with Associated Students of Yakima Valley College (ASYVC) through the Yakima or Grandview Student Councils, ASYVC Student Senate and the Student Ambassador Program.
YAKIMA & GRANDVIEW STUDENT COUNCILS
Student Councils represent the collective student voice and provide leadership on both campuses. The groups work with college administration, faculty and state-wide leadership to advocate for student resources and initiatives and help foster success.
Asyvc Student Senate
The ASYVC Student Senate is comprised of the combined student councils and representatives of all recognized clubs on campus. The Senate allocates funding for clubs and programs and provides recommendations to college leadership on issues affecting the student body. Senate meetings occur Mondays from 12:30 - 1 p.m.
Student Ambassador Program
The Student Ambassador Program is a leadership opportunity for students who are dedicated to serving and representing Yakima Valley College. Student Ambassadors provide campus tours, serve as YVC representatives and perform duties at various campus and community events. Student Ambassadors also serve in the Diversity Welcome Center where they act as a first point of contact to visitors.
Diversity Series
This unique program offers students the opportunity to lead and work alongside staff and faculty to bring awareness and special programming to campus and the community. By bringing diverse perspectives to everyday topics with a commitment to push the boundaries of the term “diversity” beyond race, gender, social class and sexuality we help make the world a more equitable place for all.
