Mission Statement:
SGA Freshmen Interns are selected by the executive staff to serve as the official voice of the freshmen class by means of representation divided among committee tasks, such as external presence, internal affairs, programming, fundraising/community service, and school spirit.
Program Opportunites:
The Student Government Association Freshmen Intern program is the ultimate leadership program on campus. 35 of the top incoming freshmen applicants are accepted into to the program each year to learn UNT tradition, develop their own leadership skills, and carry out the future of the Student Government Association. Every week speakers from various departments and organizations on campus come to teach and present opportunities available here at UNT. Next year's applications will be posted and distributed in conjunction with the first freshmen orientation session.
External Presence represents the face of SGA. This committee is responsible for representing the Freshmen Interns by attending focus groups, university committees, and other student outreach tasks.
The Internal Affairs committee works to uphold the Freshmen Intern constitution and is responsible for reporting and explaining legislative actions and systems that are implemented within the SGA.
The Programming committee assists in uniting the Freshmen Interns together with other university projects and organizations. They coordinate events such as our annual Big Whig Dinner, holiday parties, Boo Bash, and miscelaneous workshops such as dinner etiquette.
The Fundraising/Community Service Committee is responsible for planning and coordinating events that will benefit the community as well as directing fundraising activities for the Freshmen Interns.
The Spirit Committee is responsible for upholding North Texas tradition and spirit through facilitating intramural sports for the Freshmen Interns, planning homecoming activities, and any other spirit related events. This year, they have both designed and created the winning homecoming spirit wall and recieved exemplorary status at the campus Yell Like Hell event.
