At each meeting of the Luther Seminary board, three students from the council are invited to attend. We use this time both to have a greater understanding of what&#8217;s going on behind the scenes on campus and to bring to light things from student perspectives that can be shared more fully with student representation. Those of us on the executive team of the council also attend enterprise leadership team (ELT) meetings to convey student perspectives. We are thankful for these spaces where student voices can be heard and respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One big accomplishment this year was working with Dean Elton to provide more &#8220;in-person trajectories&#8221; for students who moved to campus to be in-person and have been taking classes primarily online. We are also engaging distributed learning (DL) students as they navigate hybrid and asynchronous courses, supporting how they message their needs for effective learning modalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"465\" src=\"https:\/\/inside.luthersem.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/03\/LS-StudentCouncil_March2024_sm3-1024x465.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-67\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inside.luthersem.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/03\/LS-StudentCouncil_March2024_sm3-1024x465.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/inside.luthersem.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/03\/LS-StudentCouncil_March2024_sm3-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/inside.luthersem.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/03\/LS-StudentCouncil_March2024_sm3-768x349.jpg 768w, https:\/\/inside.luthersem.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/03\/LS-StudentCouncil_March2024_sm3-1536x698.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/inside.luthersem.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2024\/03\/LS-StudentCouncil_March2024_sm3.jpg 1728w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><em>Top Row [l-r].
