Student Government Association

About the Student Government Association (SGA)

At East Central University, the responsibility for governing the student body is vested in the students themselves. All students become members of the Student Government Association (SGA) upon enrollment, and officers and Senators are elected annually.

SGA exists to represent the interests of the student body by serving as a liaison between the University and the community. Our mission is to address issues that matter most to students—from academic concerns and campus safety to student services, dining, and overall campus life.

We encourage all students to connect with your Senators through SGA Town Halls or our weekly SGA meetings. These are opportunities to share your concerns, learn about current initiatives, and help shape the future of ECU.

Purpose

The Student Government Association strives to:

• Represent the interests of students
• Empower students to voice their concerns
• Promote school spirit and community involvement
• Provide services that benefit students
• Allocate funds and support clubs and organizations
• Foster an inclusive, enjoyable, and adaptable environment for all ECU students
• Our ultimate goal is to strengthen the relationship between students, faculty, and administration, promoting both academic and social excellence.

Student Senate

Student Senate Representatives are elected by a majority of the student body and serve one-year terms beginning each fall semester.
