Student Organizations
Who Are They, What do they Do, & How Can I Get Involved?
If you're a student at Guilford College, you're probably aware of the numerous organizations on campus, but you might not know what they do, or how to approach joining them.
You also might not know that, by joining some of these groups, you can help make sure your opinions about financial decisions at Guilford reach the people who are responsible for making such choices! |

The Student Advisory Council
After the installation of the fountain was announced in Spring 2012, a group of students came together to form the Student Advisory Council. The SAC was intended to advise donors and the Budget Committee in relation to student opinions on financial issues. Due to the graduation of one of its founders at the end of the Spring 2012 semester, and a lack of leadership in the group overall, the SAC has made little progress on its goals. Though it received approval, it now exists in name only.
However, the SAC could be revived!
