UW-River Falls Governance Groups

Governance groups are an integral part of UW-River Falls, helping shape campus policies and foster collaboration across the university community. There are four main groups: the Faculty Senate, Academic Staff Council, University Staff Senate and the Student Government Association. Each represents a distinct constituency on campus, ensuring that diverse voices are heard in decision-making processes. To learn more about their roles and current initiatives, you can visit each group's website.
