SGA Congress

The Student Congress

The Student Congress Ensuring that all students are heard and represented on campus is our number one priority. Our Congress is a diverse body of students composed of Coordinators who focus on the SGA engagement efforts, as well as Representatives from each academic division, many student life related campus offices and liaison positions to campus operations offices. It is their duty to relay student concerns, vote on legislation, and preside over student clubs in order to promote a healthy campus environment.
