Student Government
Association (SGA)

Overview

The Student Government Association (SGA) is the student body's self-government and the official voice of the student body. The SGA is committed to promoting student personal, social, and academic growth through student activities. The SGA provides the environment for students to create and implement activities as they desire under the direction of Student Services staff. The Student Activities office is the home of the Student Government Association where a team of students work alongside the Student Activities Coordinator to plan and implement special events for CCCC students.

The SGA's organizational structure consists of an Executive Committee made up of the following officers: President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Historian, and student club representatives. The President of the SGA represents the student body as a non-voting member on the Board of Trustees. SGA Elections are held once a year at the end of the Spring semester where new officers are voted in by their peers. Officers receive scholarships to help pay for their college expenses in return for their work with the SGA.
