�ǿմ�ý

Founded in 1975, ASUM is the student lobbyist organization for all 70,000 students across the four �ǿմ�ý System Campuses: 

Each campus has their own chapter of ASUM that works towards civic education and advocacy for the students on their respective campus. As a whole, these four chapters make up ASUM Central, which is a collaborative effort to advocate for all students in the UM System. ASUM Central holds the Legislative Internship Program, where a team of interns from each campus works at the Missouri Capitol in Jefferson City every legislative session. This Legislative Team spends their time with Missouri lawmakers to advance ASUM's platforms, which are created in response to the needs of UM System students.

You can find more information on the Internship Program here, or you can contact your campus' ASUM chapter president (contact information found here). You can get a sense of what interns help to accomplish by clicking here, and you can learn about our platforms under the “platforms” tab on our website.
