Student Involvement in UW System

Wisconsin is one of a few states in the nation to provide students with a statutory role in university governance.

For reference, see Wisconsin Statutes, § 36.09(5), adopted in 1974, which addresses student responsibilities within the University of Wisconsin System. See also Regent Policy Document 30-3, which provides "Guidelines for Implementation of 36.09(5), Wis. Stats."
