WELCOME TO THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION!

The Student Government Association (SGA) is Hofstra University's student-run governing body and is comprised of full-time undergraduate students who were elected by the student population. It was created "to recommend polices and procedures, which serve to support and broaden the intellectual social cultural, and political needs of its constituents" and meets every Tuesday at 6 p.m. in the Greenhouse. Some of SGA's responsibilities include overseeing over 100 clubs and organizations, lobbying in the interest of the full-time undergraduate student population, and organizing programming throughout the academic year.

Currently, the SGA has six standing committees, which are the Academic Affairs Committee, the Appropriations Committee, the Club Affairs Committee, the Rules Committee, the Spirit Committee, and the Student Services Committee (click here to learn more). All of these committees work to advance the needs and interests of the student body. In addition, representatives from SGA serve on the University Senate, act as delegates on the Board of Trustees, and meet with the President, Provost, and other administrators on campus.

We encourage students and club representatives to check this page regularly for important SGA announcements. However, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact your student representatives in SGA! You may call us at (516) 463-6960 or stop by our office, room 207 of the Mack Student Center. You may also e-mail us by clicking here for a quick response!
