The Student Government Association (SGA) is a self-governing organization that works closely with the Office of Student Development and the Vice President of Student Development & Dean of Students and a staff liaison (x7700), to form a stable base for strong and independent leadership, for students, by students.

Meetings
SGA meets every Tuesday during the school year from 12:30-2:00pm in Tower-659 to discuss and act upon issues and problems that face students at MassArt.

Getting Involved
Students are encouraged to be active at MassArt and make a difference in their school experience. MassArt is a diverse community with different needs. SGA funds over forty student-run, special interest and departmental groups through student fees; all programs are open to the entire College community. As a student, you are already a member. Getting involved is as easy as attending meetings or joining a student organization.

Student Organizations sponsor social, recreational, educational and cultural activities that are geared toward student interests. SGA also supports student galleries for undergraduate exhibitions. Each group representative meets with the SGA Full Council and separately with group members. All groups welcome new members and adhere to the college's anti-discrimination and anti-hazing policies.

Attending SGA and Student Development events are one of the many ways to network at MassArt. Participating in SGA offers a chance to meet new people and help with governance at the college. SGA is a powerful organization capable of creating change and supporting ideas. For those interested in joining an existing group, or wishing to form a new group, go to the SGA Office on the 2nd floor of Kennedy or to a weekly SGA meeting in room 659 in the Tower Building.

Another way to become active is to get involved with one of the many committees formed each year. Students get a chance to interact with other students, administrators, and faculty as they work to steer the future of the institution. For information on how to become involved, contact the SGA President at x7724.
