Whats the UC?

Introduction: Mission

Student participation in college governance needs to be better coordinated and more directed. Harvard Undergraduates need a representative student government to help accomplish these goals and to speak as a voice for student concerns. These needs can only be satised if the current system of college governance is reformed and if the revised structure includes a representative student government.
