What does SGA do?

The Student Government Association acts as the central hub of communication and connection on campus. We connect students with each other as well as with faculty, staff, and senior leadership. Every year, SGA supports countless initiatives that enhance the student experience.

These initiatives include but are not limited to:

  • Distribute funding for campus events
  • Approve new clubs to add to the 100+ that exist already
  • Discuss policy initiatives that range from the dining experience to relations with the town of Norton
  • Invite members of the campus community to air concerns and ask questions
  • And so much more!
