Get Involved

The Associated Students of Madison (ASM) is the official student governance body of UW-Madison, representing the needs of over 50,000 students. Students involved with ASM learn to be effective, engaged citizens who advocate for causes and for themselves. Because of ASM’s strong reliance on the energy of many students, you can really make a difference for campus, city, state, and national issues! Visit the links below for further information on current involvement opportunities. If you have questions, or aren’t sure where to start, please don’t hesitate to contact us at: info@asm.wisc.edu
