Student
Organizations
Central
Michigan University provides students with the opportunity for
involvement in more than 180 student organizations. Many of
the larger student organizations have office facilities in the
Student Organization Center, located in the lower level of the
Bovee University Center.
Activities outside the classrooms are an integral part of the
total development process, and students are encouraged to work
in areas of interest to them. Students wishing to develop
leadership skills can do so through their involvement in these
organizations. Many departments sponsor specialized student
organizations as well as honor societies. Student
organizations also provide students with an opportunity for
volunteer work in the community.
The Student Government Association (SGA) is recognized as the
representative governing body of CMU’s students. People
wishing to serve on university committees may contact the
Student Government Association for more information. By
becoming active in SGA, any student can participate directly
in the formation of policies, procedures, and programs which
affect his or her own education. The major function of the SGA
is to represent the interests and needs of all students,
whether its focus is on a new idea or a concern to the
university community. Elections are held every year and all
student classifications are represented.
