Legislative Committees

The LSU Student Senate is divided into six standing committees, which perform most of the specialized focus work of the Senate. Each committee specializes in one of the six key areas of Student Government and student life, and each Senator is appointed to only one standing committee. Committees serve as a filter system for legislation and are the first step for bill approval and enactment. In committee, Senators discuss a bill for the first time and have the option to amend it, report it favorably to the full Senate, or to defer (kill) it. The six standing committees of the Student Senate are listed below.

Committee on Academics, Athletics, and Administration (AAA)
Committee on Finance (FIN)
Committee on Governmental Relations (GR)
Committee on Housing, Infrastructure, and Technology (HIT)
Committee on Rules (RUL)
Committee on Students' Rights and Welfare (SRW)
