A note from the Student Body President

Hello Fellow Lumberjacks!

Welcome to ASNAU’s website. If you are looking to find out more about our organization, our impact, and the various resources we offer to NAU undergraduate students, then you are in the right place!

I was recently elected as your Student Body President for the 2024-2025 academic year. I am beyond excited to be in this role because it gives me an amazing opportunity to connect with students and advocate for changes in the challenges that may be facing our campus. The motto of ASNAU is “Because of the student, we exist.” This statement is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that ASNAU, and NAU as a whole, would not be anything without the students. Therefore, here at ASNAU, we aim to create a community that supports all students, staff, educators, and administration at NAU.

During my time here, I have seen a growing increase in the number of students who are joining extracurricular activities. ASNAU hopes that we can help support any club or individual who is looking to get more involved on campus, making your time here easier. We serve as a resource for all clubs and students, hoping to connect you all with opportunities that positively affect your university careers.

My team and I are excited to represent the student body to the best of our capabilities. ASNAU is excited about this year’s projects and continued projects that can expand ASNAU’s impact on the NAU community. But in order to ensure that we are representing your needs, we would like to hear from you! If you have any questions or ideas for me please feel free to send me an email at ASNAUPresident@nau.edu because student input is vital to our organization!

If you are at all interested in joining this student organization, please keep an eye on Handshake to apply for one of our positions. If not now, elections happen in the Spring Semester. You can run for a Senate position or to be a part of our Executive team! We see possibility in every student. If you want to help make the college experience better and make time at NAU even more so unique, join us!

ASNAU is beyond excited to help your experience at NAU be memorable.
