“To represent every student. To work for real change. To proudly serve Virginia Tech.” Student Government Association of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University serves to express opinion on University affairs through the Executive, Judicial and Legislative Branches, working to establish, an effective means for advising and responding to the University Council, University Commissions, the Administration, the Faculty Senate, the Board of Visitors, and the public on University Affairs. Members participate in the formulation of academic and educational policies. Students work together to afford avenues and procedures whereby communications within the University may flow freely, fully, and systematically.

Virginia Tech Union
(advised by Student Activities)
The purpose of the Virginia Tech Union is to provide quality educational and social entertainment that represents the diverse culture of Virginia Tech's students and its community. In addition, the Virginia Tech Union enhances the Virginia Tech students' out-of-classroom experience through leadership and volunteer opportunities. In 1969, the university felt as if there should be one main student organization on campus that brings social and educational entertainment to Virginia Tech. At that time, the VTU became a University Chartered Student Organization and has since been the largest student programming board on campus. Membership is free and open to all Virginia Tech students. Members are welcome to join one or all of the ten committees! The VTU office is in 327 Squires Student Center.
