Student Government Association (SGA)

About the SGA

At Berkshire Community College, the Student Government Association (SGA) is the official voice of the student body. As a student-run organization, SGA advocates for student interests, works closely with college leadership, and supports efforts to make campus life the best it can be. SGA plays an important role in building community and making sure student voices are heard.

What does SGA do?

Here are a few key ways we support students:

  • We represent you. SGA brings student concerns, ideas, and feedback to campus leadership to help guide decision-making.
  • We build community. Whether it’s through leadership development, outreach events, or campus wide initiatives, we’re focused on helping students feel connected and heard.

  • How to Get Involved

    Thinking about joining SGA or just curious about what we do? We’re always looking for new voices and perspectives.

    Students interested in running for a seat must have at least a 2.0 GPA and be currently enrolled. Our main elections happen in the spring, but we also appoint students to fill open spots throughout the year.

    If you're ready to take the next step, reach out to our advisor, Abby Powers, or stop by one of our weekly meetings to learn more.

  • SGA Meetings

    SGA meetings are held every Tuesday and are open to the entire campus community. It’s a great way to see what we’re working on, share your thoughts, or bring up topics that matter to you.

    Meetings take place in Room G12, located on the lower level of the Susan B. Anthony Building.

    All agendas and meeting minutes are posted on the SGA bulletin board, located in the SGA Lounge across from the Bookstore.
