Georgia College's Student Government Association (SGA) serves the campus community by addressing student concerns, promoting understanding within the college community and administering all matters which are delegated to the student government by the university president. 

All students are members of the SGA upon their enrollment and officers and senators are elected on a yearly basis.

  • SGA has representation on most university-wide councils and committees.
  • SGA sets aside a portion of its monies to encourage organizations to sponsor activities which can benefit all students.
  • SGA allocates funds each year to assist students in traveling to professional conferences to present research findings in conjunction with Georgia College faculty.

Meetings

Regular meetings of the Student Government Association (SGA) are held to fulfill its responsibilities in addressing student welfare, supporting campus activities, and empowering student organizations. These meetings involve initiating and reviewing legislation, investigating student appeals, managing SGA funds, and overseeing the financial records of all registered student organizations. Resolutions passed by the Senate are presented by the SGA President to university administrators, ensuring that student requests are thoughtfully considered and implemented whenever possible. Through these efforts, SGA strives to uphold and enhance the customs, traditions, and overall student experience at Georgia College & State University.
