Student Government Association

SGA — We Are Listening!

Student Government Association (SGA) brings together executive officers and student representatives from across all academic disciplines to give students a unified, powerful voice in campus decision-making. SGA leaders are dedicated to strengthening ties between students, faculty and staff while enriching the academic, social and physical campus environment. As our state-of-the-art facilities evolve, student input remains essential—empowering SGA to directly shape how these modern spaces are designed, utilized and experienced.

Representatives
The number of representatives is based on a 1:75 departmental representative to student ratio. If you are interested in serving as one of the representatives, please contact Student Life.

Meetings
SGA meetings are held virtually once or twice a month, with the exception of May and the summer months. Meeting dates are determined at the beginning of the fall semester by the SGA board. Note, all SGA meetings are open to enrolled students, unless the executive board has plans to discuss sensitive or confidential information or business matters.
