Because self-government promotes the development of character and responsible citizenship, the Student Government Association, consisting of all students at North Greenville College, is established to interact with and advise the office of Student Services regarding the activities of student life. The officers of the Student Government Association are elected each spring by the student body. The Student Government Association exists to maintain the high ideals for which the college is justly respected and to foster recognition or privileges and responsibilities of students.
Resident students provide for their own internal government through various councils and committees.
The students in the residence halls elect these councils or committees, and their function is to plan and coordinate educational and social programs. They also make recommendations concerning residence hall rules and regulations. This organization is composed of carefully selected students who serve as campus guides and representatives to new and prospective students. Members must have a minimum 2.5 grade point ratio and exhibit exemplary Christian character. BSU is the oldest student-led organization on campus and is recognized nationally as a leader in summer missions.
