Concord University Student Government Association

We, the students of Concord University, being fully aware of the responsibilities, obligations, rights, and privileges we possess as members of the Concord University Community, do hereby promise to maintain an organization to represent student interests, opinions, and actions at Concord University.

What is SGA?

The Concord University Student Government Association (SGA) is an organization dedicated to representing student interests, opinions, and actions at Concord University. Our SGA is comprised of three branches: Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. Each branch has a unique role in establishing our organization as a true voice of the students, and each branch offers unique opportunities to students who wish to become more involved!

Student Conduct Steering Committee

This committee is made up of the Chief Arbiter, Advisor to the Student Conduct Board, and a member of the Student Affairs Staff. This committee reviews all write-ups and decides if the case should be heard by the Student Conduct Hearing Board, which handles most cases, or the Faculty Hearing Board, which
handles more severe cases that could result in suspension or expulsion from the university.

The Student Conduct Hearing Board

This board is made up of Arbiters, the Chief Arbiter, the Judicial Liaison, the Student Conduct Officer, and the Student Advocate. This board hears most cases of student misconduct and has the authority to impose punishments to students who fail to follow Concord University policy.

Arbiters act as judges in the case, the Student Conduct Officer acts as prosecutor and exorcises Concord University policy, and the Student Advocate provides a defense for accused students and has the best interest of the student in mind.

The Judicial Liaison works with the Executive Branch to represent the Student Conduct Branch in the Student Senate and help create rules and regulations for SGA events and elections.

The Student Conduct Supreme Hearing Board

The Student Conduct Supreme Hearing Board is made up of Arbiters and the Chief Arbiter. This board hears cases of SGA constitutional interpretation, acts as an Appellate Court for the Student Conduct Hearing Board, and serves as the Court in the Impeachment Process.
