Our mission is to ensure a just and united campus community while empowering the student body to live the Jesuit mission of leadership and service.

The Student Government strives to uphold the values of and represent the needs of the student body. We welcome every individual’s opinion and want students to express their concerns to us. We will gladly listen to you express your opinion about your University. Student Government has a voice and can be heard on nearly all University committees, including the Board of Directors and University Planning Group. We use this representation to better the lives of YOU, the John Carroll students.

If you are interested in becoming more involved with your student government, feel free to attend any Senate meeting held every Tuesday at 5 p.m. in the Jardine Room of DJ Lombardo Student Center. Elections for executive board positions and senate seats take place each November and December.

Let the organization that represents YOU hear YOUR VOICE!

The executive Board of the Student Government is responsible for overseeing the functions, services, and activities that the branches of the Student Government provide. They meet as a group on Thursdays at 5pm in the Student Government Office and spend many hours working individually to ensure that the Student Union keeps operating correctly and efficiently. The Executive Board is here to serve you, the students of John Carroll University. We work hard each and every day to ensure that your voice is heard. Feel free to contact us with your questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions.
