Welcome!

Mission Statement
The primary purpose of ASNAU is to serve NAU as the representative student voice at the campus, local, state, and national levels. We are to become informed on every issue concerning Northern Arizona University and communicate that knowledge and information to the students.
To accomplish this, we must provide every opportunity for students to have their opinions heard by creating an atmosphere that seeks student input and student involvement. As the representative student body, we seek to promote NAU and its activities including but not limited to: Academics, Athletics, Special Events, Community Relations, and Student Activities.
