We will notify you as soon as the new office is open for business, which will be located in UCIII! We apologize for any inconvience this might cause you during this summer.

 

Also, the University of Texas at San Antonio has concluded classes for the Spring 2008 semester.Excepting unusual circumstances, the General Assembly shall not meet in the Summer, and will reconvene in the fall. We will notify you when the SGA begins to hold General Assembly in Fall 2008!
