About How to Join

The 26 Student Government senators represent the student body's interests through the implementation of innovative programs, services, and initiatives that enrich student lives. Eight commissions work on these missions: the Academic and Student Affairs Commission, the Campus Center, Student Facilities and Sustainability Commission, the Club Commission, the Accessibility, Inclusion, and Diversity Commission, the Student Services Commission, The Student Elections and Advocacy Commission, The Non-Traditional Students Commission, and The Fiscal and Financial Affairs Commission. There are also numerous committees that the Student Government decides to create to help better the planning and functions of Student Government initiatives. Student Government also allows students to discuss finances and develop skills for financing and budgeting applicable in the real world. Student Government gives insight into handling money for an event or fundraising responsibly. Through its Club Commission, the Student Government provides funding and operational assistance to approximately 45 clubs annually, and sponsors the Club Fair, Club Festival, and Club Awards Ceremony. 

General Elections for all 26 seats, as well as various other Student Leadership roles, are held in the spring semester. Those elected during these General Elections will take office as of June 1st of that year for the upcoming AcademiC year. In addition, there may be in-house elections at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters should any vacancies need to be filled. Any student who has earned at least six (6) credits with a GPA of 2.25 or above can run for a seat on CSI's Student Government. You can have a say in making college some of the best years of your life and the lives of your classmates.
