• Represent the student body
• Provide student feedback to administration
• Coordinate and assist in the funding of the government and student organizations
• Foster an active and engaged membership within the campus and local communities
• Support the mission of Trine University

What are the benefits of getting involved?

Students involved in Student Government enhance time management, communication and organizational skills.
