How do you choose artists?
At ASCE, we conduct multiple student feedback surveys throughout the academic year, such as our yearly Entertainment Survey, Sun God Expectations Survey, and Quarter-Specific Feedback Surveys. In our surveys, we ask students to input their own artist suggestions for us to consider, as well as their favorite musical genres. Considering the frequency of artists & genres in survey results, budget limitations, and ASCE's event values, we undergo a rigorous screening process amongst our ASCE Staff Members, our Campus Events professional staff advisors, and various campus personnel to select potential artists to make initial offers to.
How is ASCE funded?
ASCE is funded by the undergraduate student activity fee. (Associated Students' Constitution, Section 6, Article 1)
