The Stanley Campus Council (SCC) functions as the Stanley Museum of Art's student-run advisory board. The SCC provides a platform for UI students to exercise their voice within the museum space: they do so by developing and facilitating student-specific programming creating and sharing original content, and creating opportunities for collaboration, partnership, and leadership among other UI student orgs and campus groups.

The Stanley Campus Council is made up of students from all different backgrounds: you'll find a range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional students getting involved in the SCC.

The Stanley Campus Council is led by the Campus Engagement Coordinator, a student employee at the Stanley Museum of Art, who is tasked with bridging the gap between the student group and the staff at the Stanley Museum of Art. The Campus Engagement Coordinator's work is supported by the SCC Intern, another student employee.
