Student Government Association

On October 17, 1906, the students of Sweet Briar College, believing in the dignity and honor of student government, desired individual and community responsibility for conduct in matters not strictly academic. The students petitioned before the President and the Faculty for legislative and executive control of non-academic matters.

The Faculty, on October 20, 1906, endorsed the request of the student body concerning matters of control in non-academic situations. This endorsement was made with the understanding that the faculty would approve any constitutional changes. While the college grants these privileges to the Student Government Association, the college reserves its right to bring disciplinary action in any circumstance where a student or group of students have violated college policies or regulations.

The Student Government Association, on March 29, 1985, proposed that Faculty approval of the Student Government Association's constitutional changes be eliminated. On March 29, 1985, the faculty voted in favor of the Student Government Association's motion.
