Student Governance

Student government exists for the two academic divisions of the college: Undergraduate Student Government (USG) and Graduate Student Organization (GSO). These governmental agencies represent student interests in reviewing, developing, and modifying college policies. They poll members, report their opinions, and represent them on issues that concern them.

Each Brooklyn College student is a member of one of these organizations, which are funded by part of the Consolidated Fee that students pay each time they register for classes. Elections are held annually; any matriculated student may seek office. Meetings of the organizations are open to all students. These organizations also sponsor and give funds to student associations for their yearly activities.
