Student Government Association

The Student Government Association's mission is to support and advocate for the students at Rock Valley College through service and leadership.

Your Campus Your Voice

Rock Valley College Student Government Association is a body of students elected by our peers to serve as your voice on campus. We promote student involvement and seek to improve student welfare.

We represent the student body by:

  1. Maintaining and exercising your voice in all student-oriented issues and consistently striving to develop your needs, wants, and ideas.
  2. Serving on advisory committees that cover goals and objectives of Rock Valley College, class and degree requirements and campus-wide policies regarding students.
  3. Providing a student forum for the student community to come and voice their opinions.
  4. Actively pursuing student issues and promoting activities related to the increased success of the student community.

Advocacy Day

Rock Valley College’s Student Government Association traveled to Springfield for Advocacy Day, meeting with state legislators to advocate for issues that matter most to community college students. Our student leaders shared their stories and made sure RVC’s voice was heard in the conversation about the future of higher education in Illinois. 

Trees on Campus

The Student Government Association planted more than 20 trees across campus, leaving a lasting, living mark on Rock Valley College. This project reflects SGA’s commitment to sustainability and to making our campus a greener, more welcoming place for future students.
