Student Government

The California Northstate University College of Medicine Student Government is established to serve the students by cultivating an environment for professional growth and excellence, while ensuring effective representation of the entire College of Medicine student body in communication and collaboration with the greater university. In order to best serve these interest, the COM Student Government is formed of governing entities specifically designed to provide representation of each class and the student body as a whole.

Student Body Council

The Student Body Council serves as the key mediator between the COM student body and the university by representing student interest in accordance with the university’s mission, policies, and regulations. In addition, the SBC shall work to foster professionalism, mentorship, and unity among the COM Student Body through oversight of Class Government, committee involvement, and student organization activities on and off campus.

Class Government
