MAXPAC is the representative body of the graduate students enrolled in the Department of Public Administration at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University. The purpose of this organization is to provide Public Administration students with a wide range of activities including social events, community service opportunities, and special interest speakers to enhance the learning experience and build group cohesion.
MAXPAC strives to promote civic responsibility, equity, inclusion of all viewpoints, and overall character education. In addition, MAXPAC serves as a liaison for the student body to the Department of Public Administration, the Graduate Student Organization, and other outside organizations.
