Governing Documents
Let's Create Change Together
Our governing documents are the foundation of how Student Government operates — setting the rules, responsibilities and structure for our work. The Constitution, Codes of Rules & Procedures and Election Code, are reviewed and approved through formal channels. Changes to these documents are reviewed by University administration and the vice president for student affairs, to ensure they reflect student priorities and uphold institutional standards.
