Student Association
The La Follette School Student Association (LSSA) hosts social events, coordinates and raises funds, provides input on the Master of Public Affairs and Master of International Public Affairs programs, and provides community service opportunities.
LSSA’s purpose is to maintain and improve the academic, social, and professional qualities of life for La Follette School graduate students. The Association’s Executive Board is elected by La Follette School graduate students and meets regularly during the academic year.
We encourage all students to get involved!
