Abstract | Among other responsibilities, many college student governments (SGs) are responsible for overseeing student fees as part of their operation (Miles et al., 2008). In 2018 around 32% of SG presidents reported being very or extremely influential on decisions involving student life and student fees (Templeton et al., 2018). At some institutions, SGs oversee the allocation and dissemination of hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. Being part of major institutional decisions, such as student fee allocations, can prepare undergraduate student leaders for post-college experiences, including interpreting tax systems, fundraising and budgeting, and even managing personal finances. Therefore, it is important to explore how involvement in college SG prepares students for life after college and, in the context of this study, work in post-college elected public office. This article illuminates the experiences of former SG leaders who ran for or served in elected public office between 2018 and 2021. Specifically, this study was guided by the question: What is the experience of former SG officers with post-college public office and the(ir) relationship(s) to fees or budgets? (ERIC). |
