CLASS Ambassadors: Who Are We and What Do We Do?
CLASS Ambassadors are the undergraduate student representatives from each department in the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences (CLASS). Ambassadors work to boost spirit across the college and university by assisting prospective, new, and continuing students through various activities like Preview Day and Calling Nights. The Ambassadors collaborate with both the college and individual departments to offer an undergraduate student's perspective, promoting goodwill through service and social events.
Each spring semester, departments within CLASS select ambassadors based on specific eligibility requirements. If you're interested in becoming a student ambassador, please reach out to your department.
- You can contact your CLASS Ambassador at CLASSambassadors@unt.edu.
- Come chat with us! Our Ambassador Chats happen every fall and spring semester during registration time.
