All students have the potential to be a leader, and at SUNY Ulster, you can get involved in a variety of ways. Try on a new role that you may never have thought of before. Here's a list of various leadership positions on campus.
Student Government Organization (SGO)
& Student Council
The Student Council is a forum composed of all campus club representatives. It is a venue to hear student grievances, concerns, comments and plans to improve Student Life at Ulster, and is to be a voice for SUNY Ulster students.The Student Government Organization maintains a cooperative relationship among students, faculty, staff, and the outside community and works to ensure that the social needs and responsibilities of students are being met. Together with the College Association's Board of Directors, the SGO oversees student clubs and organizations. It also works with the Events Planning Council to plan special social and cultural events. The College Association fee paid as part of tuition entitles each student to full membership in the SGO.
SGO/Student Council meetings are held once a month on the first Wednesday at 1:00 p.m. in the Faculty/Staff Lounge in the Cafeteria, and are open to everyone. (Except January, June, July and August.)
All Clubs are required to be represented on the Student Council and attend all monthly meetings.
