All students are members of the Student Association, which is designed to work toward full student participation in all aspects of University life, University affairs, and policy-making. It represents the student body in all facets of University governance and provides services to the campus community.

The legislative body of the Association is known as the Assembly and consists of the Association president and vice-president, one representative for each Association-recognized student organization, one representative elected for every 500 students enrolled in the Graduate School, School of Optometry, and four undergraduate students majoring in business administration, education, nursing, and fields included in the College of Arts and Sciences. The general elections are held each April. Elections are also held in the fall, providing new and transfer students with one elected representative for every 500 of these students.

Membership on Association and Assembly committees is open to all students. The executive committee of the Assembly is composed of the officers of the Association and it functions as the overall planning and executive committee and as the committee on committees.

Students interested in working in student government are encouraged to contact the Student Government Association.

In addition, the Student Government Association consists of Assembly Representatives and Organization Representatives, as described above.
