The CLAS Student Leadership Board is a group of undergraduates from the College committed to strengthening and enhancing the academic experience and student community in CLAS at UConn. The Board's mission is to serve the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences community as liaisons between the Dean and the students in order to enhance communications, academic experiences, and alumni connections while embodying the values of a liberal arts and sciences education.
The 2018-2019 CLAS Student Leadership Board comprises more than 25 undergraduate students studying in the liberal arts and sciences. The students represent a diverse array of academic interests and personal backgrounds, but they are all interested in the interface among the sciences, social sciences, and humanities at UConn.
