UM Advocates
The UM Advocates are an ASUM student group dedicated to the promotion of the University of Montana. We do this by serving as all-around campus ambassadors, student peer mentors, Big Sky Experience leaders, and by embodying the Griz spirit in our everyday lives.

Our goal is to make everyone, from new students to alumni, feel welcomed and part of the Griz Family...while having fun doin' it!
