Student Leadership and Involvement is the primary programming arm of the Memorial Union Organization (which consists of the MU Building and Services, Student Media, and SLI).  Our programs are the cornerstones for student involvement opportunities on campus.  Our goals are:

• To provide and support meaningful and diverse experiences that foster personal, group, and community-wide development.
• To bring awareness to social issues, promote civic engagement, and develop the capacity to lead in creating positive change.

In so doing, we support the Student Events and Activities Center (consisting of MUPC, ISOSU nearly 400 clubs and organizations, the Cultural Kitchen, student event and activity support), the Center for Civic Engagement (which also supports the Student Sustainability Initiative), Team Liberation, the Center for Leadership Development, and the Center for Fraternity and Sorority Life.  In addition, our Snell Hall Helpdesk supports ASOSU and the Office of Advocacy as well as many of the programs co-located in Snell hall.

-What is the “other services” line item (24xxx from the FY 13 budget request) under the SLI index?

The other service is an account code on the SLI consolidated budget that rolls up all of the operational costs accounted for in all of our indices.  The “other services” that were rolled into this area from the other budgets include advertising, software maintenance, public relations/performance contracts, security service, rentals, laundry and dry cleaning service, personal service contracts, and hosting guests and groups.
