Is going to student government the most effective way for a student to voice an issue?

Yea

What is the SG’s process for addressing an issue?

Starts with communication between council & DC.

Council takes what DC says, writes a bill then has students vote. Not many non-SG students are aware that they can write bills.

Coming to a representative or voicing it in DC are additional options.

It is really important to go to the people w. Power.
