Student Government

Our Mission
The Bryant University Student Government exists to elevate the student experience by serving as the voice of all full-time undergraduate students. Ranked No. 12 Most Active Student Government by Princeton Review, we are committed to listening, advocating, and acting on behalf of the student body—working closely with university leadership to shape policies and drive meaningful change. Through responsible management of the Student Involvement Fee, we ensure fair funding and support for student organizations. As a truly student-led organization, we champion leadership, inclusion, and active participation in the decisions that shape our campus community.
Bryant University Student Government meets weekly during the school year inside the Papitto Room in the Fisher Student Center.
Events and Activities
Bryant University’s Student Government is committed to creating a more connected, inclusive, and engaging campus environment. Through signature events, committee-led initiatives, and collaborations with other student organizations, we work to bring the student voice forward and foster a strong sense of community. Below are a few highlights of our major annual events:
Pumpkin Fest
Hosted by the Academic Affairs Committee in partnership with the Office of the Provost, Pumpkin Fest is a fun and festive fall event designed to bring the community together. Students are encouraged to share feedback about campus life and meet with faculty and staff. The event also features pumpkin carving, food trucks, and other fall-themed activities to make it both productive and enjoyable.
Day of Understanding
On Bryant’s annual Day of Understanding, a committee organizes a special event to support campus-wide conversations on community and belonging. Student Government invites a guest speaker to engage students in thought-provoking discussion, promoting an open and educational environment for dialogue and growth.
