Student Action was founded in 1995 at UC Berkeley amidst a pending University lawsuit that left the ASUC saddled with million dollars of debt. The founders of Student Action saw a pressing need for more effective student representation. Student Action is a coalition which has historically represented community-based groups including A People’s Party with Loyalty and Experience (APPLE) and UNITE Greek. Student Action has evolved to all-inclusive slating and endures with a commitment to the principles of service and representation for the entire student body, through practical initiatives that tackle student problems.
