Student Leadership Opportunities

STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION

The Student Government Association of Central Arizona College (SGA) promotes student engagement in the college experience by sponsoring activities, offering programs, developing leadership potential, and coordinating clubs and organizations.  The association advocates student interests to the college administration and community at large.  The association is active at each campus of the college and serves about 5,500 students.

MISSION STATEMENT
The purpose of the Student Government Association of Central Arizona College (SGA) is to create opportunities and to unite us all as one.  We are the voice of students, and together we should inspire confidence, encouragement, and involvement within our communities.  By serving Central Arizona College, SGA generates a positive and rewarding experience for all those who attend CAC.

Association Leadership:  The association is led by students who are elected by their peers.  The president and vice-president are district-wide officers. Each of the campuses (Aravaipa, Maricopa, San Tan, Signal Peak, and Superstition Mountain) will have at least two senator representatives.  There is also a senator elected specifically to represent online students.  Staff members, in the role of advisors, provide advice, guidance, and support to the SGA.

Meetings:  Meetings are held each Monday at 1:00PM through the Fall 2022 semester. Meetings are held virtually via Microsoft Teams and will be switching to Blackboard Collaborate at some point.  All meetings are open to the public.
