The Student Government Association (SGA) addresses student needs, ideas and concerns in the School and works to move the School to action on behalf of those concerns. The SGA facilitates communication among the student body, faculty and the University. The SGA is annually funded from student activities fees. These fees are disbursed to the various "recognized" student organizations for promotion of the organizations' goals. The SGA is responsible for making appointments, along with the endorsement of the Assistant Dean for Student Affairs (OSA), of student who would like to serve on the various faculty committees. Officers are President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, and eight University SGA Senators. Each student organization additionally appoints a member to the SGA to represent their respective organization. Meeting dates and times are announced weekly in the School of Social Work Bulletin.
