A: IMPACT is the student programming board of the Centennial Student Union. It's for students and run by students with advising from staff in the Student Activities office. The money that we use comes from your student activity fees, so it's a great way to help decide how some of your student activity fees are being used. Our events are either free or at a reduced cost to students.
