The Student Government Association is a shared governance organization in regular com- munication with senior university administra- tors about the college operations and polices affecting the lives of Miner students. SGA is the official voice of students, ensuring that student
opinions and concerns are expressed. SGA safe- guards student participation in the University decision-making process, defends the rights of each student, and works toward the advance- ment of the University community.
SGA consists of three branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. The Executive branch includes the President, two Vice Presidents
and an Executive Assistant. The Legislative Branch, is comprised of one Senator for every 1,000 students enrolled at the university (25 total) with eight (8) of these representing each academic college or Graduate school. The Sena- tors serve on the Student Senate that passes bills and allocates funds to students and/or Registered Student Organizations for Universi- ty related projects, events, or travel. Legislative tasks are divided among committees focusing on addressing issues affecting student life. The Judicial Branch presides over court hearings requested by students and is composed of a Supreme Court and a Traffic Court. The Su- preme Court consists of seven justices, and the Traffic Court consists of five justices.
