The purpose of the Student Government Association shall be to preserve the Student Government Association as an effective means of representing students; to provide a constructive line of communication between students, faculty and administration; to foster student involvement in all campus activities; to enhance the educational, social and cultural experience of all students; and most importantly, to provide an environment conducive to the education of all Fort Hays State University Students.
Services
Free Legal Counseling
Student Government Association offers Free Legal Counseling as a service to students who need advice in legal matters, such as landlord disputes or minor in possession charges. We offer at least two sessions each semester and students can sign up to utilize the service through Tigerlink. All information provided on the form is confidential and only shared with our legal counsel.
Party Pack Registration
Our party pack registration service offered to off-campus students hosting parties in the Hays community. By registering, the Hays Police Department is notified of location and time of the event. If a noise complaint is called in to the registered address, a Police Officer calls the host with a 15 minute warning to quiet down. Avoiding noise citation fines can save students up to $500. To register, fill out our form on TigerLink.

The landlord fair is an annual event in the Memorial Union that gives students the opportunity to meet face to face with landlords around Hays and understand their rights as a tenant. This event is TBD.
