The University Student Center is located in the center of campus and serves as the hub of Student Engagement. While the Student Center as a facility provides a safe space for students to engage, empower, and transform our student body, the Student Center is much more than just a building.

The University Student Center is a student-run organization that provides students with co-curricular events and activities through the SC Board of Directors, Programming events, Service Desk services, the Weekend Warrior Program, and provides community service opportunities through the Warriors Giving Back program.

We encourage all students to visit the Student Center and take part in our various programs and services!

 

 

ASI + SC Working Together

Associated Students, Inc. and the University Student Center are two separate organizations but are functionally merged. This means they have different missions (why they exist) and different visions (goals they work towards) but they share the same values (ethics, student engagement, etc.). ASI & SC are functionally merged because they share values.

Each organization has its own budget and goals, but they are run by the same Executive Director, allowing both organizations to creatively collaborate to provide services to students. The ASI & SC Executive Director has both organizations’ priorities and interests in mind and continuously works to identify ways where they can work together to benefit students.

Diversity, Inclusion, & Belonging

We, as Associated Students, Incorporated and the University Student Center are committed to creating a sense of belonging for our diverse campus community. We prioritize establishing a welcoming environment by embracing and celebrating differences to create opportunities for students regardless of their personal identities. ASI and SC acknowledge that as organizations with a notable presence on campus, it is our responsibility to continue to advance social justice efforts and promote equitable practices.

We commit to evolve and grow with our ever-changing campus community. We strive to meet students’ unique needs by fostering relationships and collaborating with on-campus groups to provide exceptional and equitable services, programs, and resources.

In celebration of our visible and invisible differences, we remain united. We are Warriors.

Documents

Each year, the SC Board of Directors develops and approves the organization’s operating budget for the upcoming fiscal year. Lead by the Chair and Vice-Chair, the board ensures the budget aligns with our Mission and Vision statements. An internal financial audit is conducted annually by an outside auditing firm. Once complete, the audit report is presented to the Board of Directors for their final review and approval. Additionally, the Chancellor’s Office conducts an extensive compliance audit every three years.

Student Center Budget Pie Chart: Stockton Campus: $13,062; Leadership: $86,786; Awards, Gifts, and Donations $96,625;  Programming: $224. 883; Service Desk: $14,177; Operations: $259,013; Utilities: $105,600; Professional Staff: $1,509,993; Administration" $601,497; Debt Service: $3,430,100; Student Staff: $492,770

Requiring board approval prior to implementation, organizational policies provide direction and consistency to the SC.  As a result of our functional merge, most policies now apply to both the ASI & SC and therefore require approval by both the ASI & SC Boards of Directors.  Those policies pertaining exclusively to SC functions are approved by the SC Board of Directors (only) prior to implementation.
