Student Government Association

We the students of Skidmore College, operating under the authority granted to us by the Board of Trustees, unite in the formation of the Skidmore College Student Government Association. Our purpose, with full realization of the responsibilities inherent in membership, is to establish and maintain conditions of student life conducive to good scholarship, intelligent citizenship, benevolent service, and individual growth. To achieve these goals all students reserve the rights to examine, discuss, and decide matters of student life in the spirit of cooperation and mutual understanding of institutional policy. The Student Government Association is based upon the pursuit and attainment of knowledge and truth, and to these ends, students are expected to be exemplars of academic and social integrity.

All Skidmore College students, with the exception of Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS) students and part-time students living off campus, are members of the SGA by virtue of the fact that they pay the Student Activity Fee as part of their tuition.
