The Student Government Association consists of students chosen in campus-wide elections held each spring. One of the SGA’s most important functions is developing a budget for appropriating student activity fees to the many diverse student activities and organizations. In addition to its financial responsibilities, the SGA appoints student representatives to serve on most faculty committees. These committees deal with various aspects of campus life including publications, activities, discipline, financial aid, academic affairs, athletics, and alumni activities. All residence halls exercise a form of self-government known as residence hall councils. Students are responsible for their conduct, activities, and care of their facilities. The fraternal organizations affiliated with the college maintain their own governing bodies.
