Associated Students Inc. (ASI) is a non-profit auxiliary which identifies and responds to major student initiatives, oversees the ASI and student body center fees, and funds the operation of the Student Union.

Various programs, services, and the day-to-day functions of ASI and the Student Union are overseen by the ASI professional staff. All CI students pay both an associated student fee and a student body center fee as part of their registration.

ASI is governed by the ASI Board of Directors, which is comprised of nine students (one student appointed by each of the “ASI entities” (see below), four students elected by the student body, and one student appointed by the Student Government President) and five non-students appointed by the University President (three administrators, one faculty member and one member of the community).

ASI Entities

The four organizations listed below have been designated by the ASI Board as the “ASI entities.” Because of the significant outreach for which each of these organizations is responsible and the critical role they play in engaging the CI student body, these organizations have been allotted one director position each on the ASI Board and office space in the Student Union.

• Student Government (SG) is comprised of elected student leaders including a president, vice president and senators. Student Government contributes input on University policies and processes, advocates for the CI student body, and recommends students to serve on University committees.
• The Student Programming Board (SPB) helps to engage students of CI through the implementation of social, educational and cultural programs.
• The CI View is the campus student newspaper which serves as a forum for discussion of issues occurring on campus, in the region, nationally and internationally.
• The Nautical yearbook provides the campus community with a historical publication highlighting the events, celebrations, changes, challenges and successes of the academic year.

Student Complaint Procedure

The California State University takes very seriously complaints and concerns regarding the institution. If you have a complaint regarding the CSU, you may present your complaint as follows:

If your complaint concerns CSU’s compliance with academic program quality and accrediting standards, you may present your complaint to the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) at https://www.wascsenior.org/comments. WASC is the agency that accredits the CSU’s academic program.

If your complaint concerns an alleged violation by CSU of a state law, including laws prohibiting fraud and false advertising, you may present your claim to the campus president or designee (Toni DeBoni, AVP for Student Affairs/Dean of Students, at toni.deboni@csuci.edu).  See Procedure for Student Complaints-Executive Order No. 1063 for details regarding the complaint requirements and complaint process: http://www.calstate.edu/eo/eo-1063.html.  The president or designee will provide guidance on the appropriate campus process for addressing your particular issue.

If you believe that your complaint warrants further attention after you have exhausted all the steps outlined by the president or designee, or by WASC, you may file an appeal with the Associate Vice Chancellor, Academic Affairs at the CSU Chancellor’s Office. This procedure should not be construed to limit any right that you may have to take civil or criminal legal action to resolve your complaint.
