The Student Government Association of Southern Union State Community College exists to stimulate and develop school spirit, to encourage and maintain participation in school projects, to foster a spirit of cooperation among the faculty and student body, and to recommend ways and means by which the college may be improved. This elective body is the students' official voice in affairs of the college. Students are urged to understand its purpose, to use their voices wisely in its regard, and to seek to become a part of the working body itself if they feel that they have contributions to make.

The association is specifically authorized and governed by a duly ratified constitution. The constitution describes fully the limit and scope of Student Government Association responsibilities and procedures. Students should become familiar with the constitution as soon as possible. For additional information concerning the Student Government Association contact Lori Daniel, Director of Student Life at extension 5170 or 5171.
