SGA stands for Student Government Association. Students make up the entire membership of this organization. If you are wondering who can join the SGA, the answer is YOU! Every student enrolled at BRCC is a member of the SGA; there are no eligibility requirements to join. You decide how involved you will become with the meetings, activities, and governmental issues. In fact, being an active member of the SGA enables you to take part in planning and implementing programs and measures that will affect the entire student body of BRCC.

Government is the most important part of the SGA, this student-driven organization conducts and regulates all campus-wide elections and referenda. The SGA's members work closely with BRCC's administration and faculty, the Legislative Branch of the State of Louisiana, and leaders of other statewide student organizations to establish policies effecting students enrolled in higher education in the state. By attending meetings, YOU gain firsthand knowledge of issues that will effect your education.

Association with your peers on an extracurricular level helps give you a well-rounded education. The SGA is not always about business; members enjoy planning fun activities for the student population of BRCC as well as associating with administrators, lawmakers, and civic leaders who make a difference at the community college. As an active SGA member, YOU serve as an ambassador, establishing relationships between BRCC and its students as well as the community at large.
