The Council anticipates for the 2017-2018 academic year the meetings will be in the evenings beginning at 7 pm, and generally 90 minutes in length. The 2017-2018 Council membership will consist of 15 student members. Student membership/participation is ideally for two consecutive years. Application deadline: Thursday, June 15, at 5pm.

Special Olympics Oregon is hosting their summer games at Oregon State University July 8-9th. Alicia Dixon-Ibarra is the OSU site coordinator for the Healthy Athletes program.
