Class Cabinets

Class Committee System

The RCSGA Class Committee System was implemented in the Spring of 2003 to create more leadership opportunities, facilitate collaboration with Westhampton College via their class cabinets, and to concentrate on grade-specific programming, events, and concerns.  Each Committee has a chair and between 7 and 14 cabinet members, who work with both the Senate and the Richmond College Dean’s Office.

The primary goal is to give definite structure to the system, clearly define expectations and roles, and to create several meaningful programs for the students in their respective grade levels.  Below are some projects that are either completed or in the works for this academic year.
