Student Affairs CommitteeThe Student Affairs Committee has existed since 1986. The primary function of the committee is to advise the Dean of the College of Applied Sciences and Arts of any student problems or needs, to recommend policy or suggest courses of action, and to suggest improvements to the College. The students that participate in the Student Affairs Committee are the liaisons between the department/school, the students, and the Dean's Office. The Committee discusses issues of concern brought to the committee by the students-at-large or by committee members themselves. The secondary function of the Student Affairs Committee is the preparation and review of the Dean's Undergraduate Scholarships and SJSU University Alumni Association Scholarships. There are ten Dean's Undergraduate Scholarships of $500 each. The committee gets the word out to each department or school. The scholarship process begins early in the Fall term and continues into the Spring term. The University Alumni Association offers two $1250 scholarships for each college in the University. The SJSU Alumni Scholarships are available in February. These scholarship winners, and the winners of the other student awards, are honored at the Dean's Awards Reception on the first Monday in May.
