Student Government Association


Welcome to OU SGA!

The mission of the University of Oklahoma Student Government Association is to support the University’s advancement by prioritizing student voices at every degree level; to advocate for the holistic development of each student; and to promote civic engagement and community involvement across campus.

Since 1969, the University of Oklahoma Student Government Association (OU SGA) has continued the legacy for the student body at the OU-Norman campus. The SGA allows students to organize and make a difference in their academic and extracurricular experience. We serve and advocate for the student body for the importance of higher education, campus saftey and policies, extracurricular involvement, and academic excellence.

Land Acknowledgement

The Student Government Association would like to honor and recognize the rich heritage and traditions of the land and its peoples on which we are gathered today.

Long before David Ross Boyd envisioned the University of Oklahoma, the land on which we gather today served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst many Indigenous peoples. Tribes such as the Caddo and Wichita and Affiliated tribes called this land home long before the University of Oklahoma was established. Today, 39 tribal nations dwell within the state of Oklahoma as a result of policies that were designed to assimilate Native people and strip them of their diverse and sacred cultures and traditions.

This land acknowledgment statement is a public expression of gratitude and honor for the people who have been living on and cultivating this land from time immemorial. Today, many Native people represent their families and tribes from across the land as Indigenous students, faculty and staff here at the University of Oklahoma.

The Student Government Association would like to acknowledge that today... We are visitors on this land. We are thankful for the privilege and opportunity to be visitors.
