Student Government is an opportunity to grow as a leader, represent your peers, and make a tangible impact at Broward College. Engage with legislative advocacy, plan events, and ensure the student voice is heard.
Student Government (SG) is a Student Scholarship Position that empowers you to represent Broward College and be the voice of students. Each campus has its own Student Government, consisting of a president, vice president, and five additional paid senator positions. Additionally, there is one student chair who represents all Broward College students at the monthly Board of Trustees meetings, serving as their official voice. Represent BC at local and regional conferences, promote legislative advocacy, foster strong citizenship, and develop your leadership skills.
Broward College is part of the Florida College System Student Government Association (FCSSGA). This organization represents the nearly one million students enrolled in the Florida College System's 28 colleges. They promote legislative advocacy and training, leadership development, service-learning, promotion of campus activities, and strong citizenship.
Each year, students have the opportunity to participate in conferences and legislative advocacy through FCSSGA.
The constitution outlines the structure, responsibilities, and powers of the Student Government. It ensures transparency and accountability within the organization.
