Rhodes Student Government (RSG) represents the interests of students to the rest of the campus—faculty, staff, trustees, alumni, and friends of the college. In addition to the RSG officers and Student Senate members, which are elected by a student body-wide vote, there are four governmental bodies: the Allocations and Student Organizations Commission, Community Standards Council, Honor Council, and Rhodes Activities Board. This year’s officers talked to us about their responsibility to represent not only organizations, but also the values that define our campus culture.
