Vote In The SGA Elections!!
The SGA advocated for the implementation of a tracker on the shark shuttle so students can see where it is at all times. Download the LIU Connect App and Click Shark Shuttle to locate the bus.
The SGA advocated for the implementation of a campus-wide Bike Program that students can use to get from place to place on campus. This program is coming soon to campus.
The SGA worked with administration to open up a brand new Residence Life Gym on campus located in Riggs Hall. Don't let the name fool you, the gym is open to all students on campus! Since the athletes dominate the gym in Pratt, this is a way for all students to have access to a gym on campus, free of charge.

After the tragic passing of Dr. William Krause on campus, the SGA recognized a need for an increase in Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) on campus, as well as signage for where they are located. We worked tirelessly through our Student Safety Committee to meet with campus officials to add 26 AEDs to campus.
The Career Bar used to consist of a single computer and a single printer. The SGA has advocated for better use of the space. After conversations with administration, the Career Bar now has several additional desktop computers and an additional printer. We were able to get a printer added to the Rigg's BlueFit Gym as well. We are constantly advocating for additional printers to be placed around campus.
(Career Bar has now moved to behind the Concierge Desk and is now called the Student Business Center)
After hearing several concerns about Food issues on campus, the SGA Campus Quality Committee advocated for the implementation of the Food Committee. The SGA holds Food Committee meetings monthly to go over any food-related issues on campus with the Dining Services Company and the LIU Administration. We believe the new Dining Services Company will exceed the expectations of students!
The LIU SGA has partnered with SGAs across the state for a united effort to promote mental health on college campuses. We have passed a resolution calling for the amendment and subsequent enactment of the proposed Student Suicide Prevention Act (SSPA), a state bill currently under review in the New York State Legislature.
The SGA co-hosted a leadership conference Spring 2024 where dozens of SGAs across Long Island and New York State met at Stony Brook. We talked about the Metal Health Act and collaborated to share ideas on how we are helping students at our universities.
