Student Government Association

SGA

All full-time Columbia College students are members of the Student Government Association. Part-time students are associate members. SGA elections are held in the spring and again in the fall; full-time students who meet the requirements for an office may run for election or petition for appointed positions.

The Student Government Association is the direct tie between the student body and the College's administration. SGA's Senate consists of the SGA Executive Board and elected student representatives from the residence halls and off campus.

As the official voting body representing the students, the SGA Senate has direct impact on major policy issues and in initiating and recommending changes to meet student needs and wishes.

If you are interested in participating in SGA or just want information, contact Samantha White at (573) 875-7403 or sjwhite@ccis.edu.
