Student Senate

Student Senate is the student government organization at Redeemer. In addition to organizing events throughout the year, Senate provides a forum for your concerns and ideas. If you see a need or have a great suggestion, Senate will help you make a difference.
 
Student Senate also grants funding for a variety of clubs and volunteer organizations, as well as for the student newspaper, The Crown, and yearbook, Anno Domini. Providing opportunities for students to be involved beyond academic experiences, Senate encourages student involvement in a wide variety of activities and challenges them to broaden their education.
 
The vision of Student Senate is to prayerfully partner with students to enable involvement and encourage service to students, Redeemer and the wider community.
