Student Government
The representative governing body for all students at Texas A&M is the Student Government. This body is directly responsible for representing the interests of students to the administration and to the entire University community. The Student Government works with the administration on such issues as changes in rules and regulations, the allocation of student services fees and student membership on University committees. It also conducts many programs that are of service to the students including student elections and voter registration.
Student body officers are elected in the spring each year. They work within the structure of the student government, which is organized into three branches—executive, legislative and judicial. The executive branch contains a number of committees such as Traditions, Muster, Parents’ Weekend, Freshman Programs and the Conference on Student Government Associations (COSGA). The legislative branch is composed of the Student Senate which is the policy-making division of student government. Representatives to the Senate are elected each spring from living areas and academic colleges. The judicial court is appointed by the student body president with the approval of the Senate For more information, contact the Student Government Office at (979) 845-3051 or sga.tamu.edu.
