What does Student Government do for the students of Pittsburg State University? The Student Government represents the voice of the student body of PSU to the faculty, local government, state government, and anyone else whose interests might affect PSU's students. Programs such as Safe Ride, the Gorilla Rental Guide, and the Collegiate Readership Program, just to name a few, have begun with Student Government initiatives.

How does one join Student Government? There are two ways to become part of PSU's SGA: get voted in in one of the April elections or fill a vacancy.
What is a vacancy and how to I fill one? There are four colleges with senate seats representing each of them, graduate senate seats, and at-large senate seats. There are 28 seats total. When one of these seats opens up it is a vacancy. When this happens a vacancy committee will meet and interview potential candidates. This happens at the beginning of each semester. You fill a vacancy by filling out an application and signing up for an interview time. If your application and interview are good you are a new student leader at PSU!
