http://ocsenate.tumblr.com/ The Student Senate is the central governance organization for the student body.

It is the principal advocate for the interests of the student body as a whole to the Oberlin administration and faculty, and ensures effective student participation in the faculty governance system. The Senate is a central forum for common dialogue within the student community, and for the development of legislation to actualize common goals.

As representatives of Oberlin’s student body, we aim to uphold and cultivate a community on campus that embraces, uplifts, and protects equity, diversity, and inclusion. We aim to expand accessibility in academia, student life, and the conservatory. As student leaders, we will use our positions to be change agents to ensure that the issues illuminated by students, faculty, and staff are addressed on an institutional, social, and academic level.

In line with our mission statement, this survey aims to collect data about what you all perceive as urgent issues and concerns that should be addressed by the Student Senate, senior administration, and other faculty and staff. This survey data will prompt us to add your grievances to our agenda to address them via various actionable steps.

Thank you all so much for the love and enthusiasm at last night's Asian Cultural Arts Festival! We hope to work with other student orgs and administrators to make it an annual event 🧡💛♥️ Student org representatives and volunteers put together this list of Asian Cultural orgs, Asian-inclusive orgs, and resources, which was presented at the beginning of the event. The Asian community at Oberlin is diverse and powerful, and we hope this list helps at least one person find community here.

Oberlin has committed to re-evaluating the ObieSafe policies once at least 80% of the campus population provides proof that they are fully vaccinated. If you upload your vaccination card to the OberView Student Health Portal by May 10th, your name will be entered into a raffle for up to $500. Student Senate has created a tutorial graphic on how to successfully upload your vaccination card to help simplify the process for you all.
