Student Government Association (SGA)

The Student Government Association (SGA) is the student governing body at MassBay, and is open to all students. SGA represents the official voice of the student body and student opinion on issues that affect all MassBay students. SGA is comprised of eighteen (18) elected students as well as several volunteers. These students meet regularly with faculty, staff, and administrators to improve the quality of the student experience at MassBay. SGA meetings are open to all students, faculty, and staff members.

The purpose of this organization shall be to encourage and to provide for the participation of all students at all campuses, in the affairs of the student body at the College, to promote and develop ideas for the interest, growth and welfare of the College community, and to provide a suitable means of cooperation at the College among the students, the faculty, and the administration of the College.

SGA is looking for your feedback on Open Educational Resources and Textbooks costs 

Fill out the SGA OER Survey

This year, SGA is interested in learning more about how the costs of textbooks negatively impacts our students and your success. Thank you for taking a moment to give us your input on this important topic. 

What is OER? 

Open educational resources are materials for teaching or learning that are either in the public domain or have been released under a license that allows them to be freely used, changed, or shared with others. OER may include everything from a single video or lesson plan to a complete online course or curriculum and also include the software platforms needed to create, change, and share the materials (Definition from https://www.edweek.org/ew/issues/open-educational-resources-oer/index.html). If you have taken a course with an online textbook or resources that were free for you to use/access you may have taken a class that utilized OER.
