On behalf of the Student Government Association (SGA), I would like to extend a warm welcome to our Raider community as we begin another exciting academic year. SGA is proud to serve as the voice of all students by advocating for student needs, concerns and ideas to help shape a better Ship experience for all.
SGA’s mission is to ensure that every student is heard, valued and represented. We work diligently to listen to student concerns; support student initiatives and collaborate with our campus partners, clubs and organizations; and share the student perspective with university administration.
We look forward to continuing to build a stronger, more connected campus community that encourages students to share ideas, attend public meetings, visit SGA members in CUB 201 and participate in upcoming events. I encourage you to discover who your senators are and have your voice be heard through them.
SGA senator elections will be held starting Sept. 22. All students will receive an email to be able to vote for their candidates of choice. Students may also run for positions as a write-in candidate.
Our first Public Meeting of the semester is on Thursday, Sept. 18. The meetings for October, November and December are on the first Thursday of each month. All meetings begin at 4 p.m. and will be held in CUB room 119, and we hope to see you there.
