Student Council

Goddard's Student Council is a working group of elected student representatives committed to advocacy of student voice and to the collaboration between students and the Goddard community-at-large. The Student Council is composed of student representatives from each of the academic programs. Programs with more than 100 students have two seats on Student Council; programs with fewer than 100 students have one seat. Student Council Representatives are elected by a vote of students in their program and serve one-year terms. For more information about the Student Council, contact the Director of Student Life.

Goddard Students

"Just as serving on Student Council makes me feel more closely connected to the College, I believe that the Council and its actions can encourage a greater closeness, understanding and the ability to work together among all in the Goddard College community." -- Deborah Ross, Psychology and Counseling Program Co-Representative

"I joined Student Council because I believe that democratic participation is an important component of Goddard's social justice mission, and because I wanted to give back to the community which has given so much to me." -- Leslie Freeman, Individualized MA Program Representative

"Being on the Student Council for me is about finding a way to best represent a community spread out across the world. Our job is to address the needs of both the collective campus and individuals in the most productive, proactive, and idealistic fashion." -- David J. Sammarco, Education and Licensure Programs Representative
