Student Council

The Student Council is the official body that represents all the students at Goodwill Technical College. All students enrolled at the college are members of the Student Council upon payment of tuition and fees. The membership has the authority to elect officers to represent the student body. The College Counselor oversees the Student Council and is responsible for ensuring timely elections of Student Council Officers. Student Council Officer positions include President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. All elected Student Council Officers serve in their positions for one year.  Meetings of the Student Council are open to all students and students are encouraged to get involved by attending meetings and running for office during elections. The College Counselor serves as an advisor to the Student Council and is responsible for communicating with college administration.
