The Campus Advocacy Committee shall consist of the Vice President, who will serve as its Chair, and at least four members appointed by the President and approved by the Senate.

Within the Campus Advocacy Committee is the Pennington program, which is structured around a commitment to organize no less than one community volunteer outreach event for each of the fall and spring semesters.

This program is in recognition and loving memory of a 1993-94 USGA senator, Cannella Pennington. During her service to the student government, she actively pursued the development of a campus-wide volunteer program. In order to honor her ideas, goals and memory this program will strive to provide students with the opportunity to give to and receive from the greater UMB neighborhood.

The Campus Advocacy Committee shall be responsible for leading student advocacy within UMB and organizing student advocacy initiatives on the UMB campus that support the USGA Senate’s initiatives with the UMB administration.
