The University Program Board actively seeks input from SCSU students, staff, faculty, and community members about the events that are programmed on the St. Cloud State University campus. In order to meet the needs of students, UPB administers an annual survey that was sent to all SCSU students. Below are some key findings from our annual surveys over the past two years, both surveys were administered during Spring Semester.
