The Student Government Association (SGA) is "your voice" and "your advocate." The SGA consists of the Executive Board and the Student Senate. Every Activity Fee paying Carteret Community College student is a member of the SGA and represented by a voting senator from each curriculum area or a representative from each student organization, and two ex-officio members from the Basic Skills programs.

The SGA offers members the opportunity to build leadership and communication skills, to learn work-related responsibilities, and to create an efficient/effective office environment. SGA members participate in community and student service programs, SGA conference meeting, intercollegiate contests, student activities, socials, and public speaking events.

The Executive Board and Student Senate meet twice a month.

Elections for curriculum area Senators and Club Representatives to the Student Senate take place the last Thursday of August. If you are interested in becoming a Senator/Club Representative please contact your curriculum coordinator or club advisor.
