By Diana Fedinec
Congratulations to the newly elected members of the 2021-2022 Student Government Association (SGA)!
Students voted online via the My.Southwest portal April 19-20. SGA members took the oath of office May 19 to serve a one-year term.
SGA members serve as liaisons between students, faculty and administration. They meet regularly and serve on various College committees. As representatives of the student body, they carry forward student concerns and suggestions to faculty and administration. SGA also hosts educational and social events for students designed to foster student success and advance the mission of the College.
