Launched in Summer 2009, the Experience Eastman program is an effort to more closely integrate the University of Rochester River Campus and the Eastman School of Music. The Students’ Association believes that both campuses offer incredible events, and that the student body should be aware of and be able to take advantage of all that each campus has to offer. Thus, the Experience Eastman program is especially focused on spreading awareness on the River Campus about events taking place at the Eastman School of Music. The theory behind this program relies on the idea that the two campuses may be diverse and geographically separated, but nevertheless, they belong to a University of One.

How it works
Student Organizations adapt a current event or design a new program concept which meets the goals of the Experience Eastman Program. Sponsoring organizations are responsible for funding their portion (sponsorship) of the event but may seek additional funding through a request to the Students’ Association Appropriations Committee (SAAC).
