The Student Government Association serves as the student body’s voice at SwVCC.  The SGA senate is comprised of fifteen senators. 

SGA manages the Student Activities budget which supports clubs and organizations, the SwVCC Series, intramural and club sports, special programs for students such as dances and other social gatherings. 

To qualify as a senator you must be enrolled as a full-time student, and if elected, continue to be enrolled full-time for the duration of the term of office.  You must also maintain a 2.0 average while in office. 

The SGA meets every Monday from 12:00-12:50 in Buchanan Hall room 100.
