Student Government

The Student Government Association (SGA) represents the student body at Nashville State. SGA is available to hear student concerns, organize programs to support the student experience, and create opportunities for student representation and advocacy for all campuses and constituency groups.

Our Mission

The Student Government Association of Nashville State Community College will recognize the varied needs, concerns, and wants of the student body on all campuses of Nashville State Community College. We will project and represent the student’s voice and opinion by acting as the liaison with administration, faculty, and staff of Nashville State as well as strive to provide guidance and advice to our fellow students. We will actively work with the Office of Student Life to develop meaningful and exciting events and activities as well as proactively seeking innovative solutions and outcomes to create a more diverse and fulfilling experience among all students here at Nashville State Community College.

 


 

Meet the Executive Board

The SGA Executive Board is a team of students, elected by their peers and the leadership body for Student Government. 

Cory is at his best when being of service to others, grounded and focused on what life has to offer. Passionate about advocating for himself and others, Cory fights for equality in all aspects of life, pushing those around him to strive for the same. He feels most energized when fully rested, focused, and taking care of himself and his priorities.

In his various roles, Cory connects students to resources they might not know existed, bridges the gap between administration and students, and provides a space for the association to thrive with unwavering support. He believes in the power of service, understanding that this calling stems from a realization that true success lies in investing in oneself and others. Cory's mission is to make a lasting impact by empowering students, fostering inclusivity, and ensuring every voice is heard.
