National Committee on Student Activities (CSA)

2008-2009 Roster

The Committee on Student Activities (CSA) is comprised of ten civil engineering educators and practitioners who help guide the overall national ASCE student program. Any time you have a suggestion or concern about a specific student program, feel free to contact the CSA representatives.

CSA meets twice a year (September and March) to discuss current activities and to propose new activities. Among CSA's responsibility are reviewing applications to establish new Student Chapters/International Student Groups; providing guidance and attending the ASCE Student Conferences; hosting the Workshop for Student Chapter Leaders; serving on the rules committee for the National Student Steel Bridge Competition; overseeing the Committee on National Concrete Canoe Competitions; evaluating annual reports; and administering the National Daniel W. Mead Student Contest.
