The Student Government Association, or SGA, is known across campus as the elected leaders, yet many people may not know what they actually do. SGA is made up of four elected senators and one president per class, and one student body president and vice president. Senators and class presidents are elected by the student body each year at the end of the school year and serve for the full school year. The student body president and vice president are elected in December each year and serve a calendar year. The current SGA president is senior gymnast Jack Campbell, who was elected last year with junior Aidan Jones as vice president. After Simpson’s swimming program was cut, Aidan Jones received an offer from Iowa State and transferred at the start of the 2026-2027 school year. Since then, junior Tristan Blair, the previous junior class president, was elected vice president.
