There are currently three CCSG standing committees: Finance & Administration (F&A), Outreach & Engagement (O&E), and Regional Affairs (RA). Senators will be appointed to committees by the current CCSG President and CCSG Advisor.

This role is intentionally designed for students who want to learn how a student government organization operates, participate in conferences and projects, and gain leadership experience, while recognizing they may not have the time to fulfill the greater time commitments required of Executive Board or Senator positions. Student Representatives are required to attend monthly Senate meetings and meet attendance requirements. Additional involvement beyond these meetings is encouraged but left to each representative鈥檚 discretion.

There are five fixed Executive Board positions: President/Student Trustee, Vice President, Director of Finance and Administration, Director of Outreach and Engagement, and Director of Regional Affairs. The individuals who serve on each CCSG committee hold the title of Senator. The remainder of the Student Senate is composed of Student Representatives.

Every student is subject to the election process, and that is the only way one can be appointed to an Executive Board position. As vacancies occur, the Executive Board may appoint students to fill senator and student representative positions. The election process begins through an online application that opens at the start of the Spring semester. Following approval of the application, students will run in accordance with all election procedures. This includes a period of time preceding the campaign and voting phase, during which all candidates must obtain petition signatures. After the election, all members are sworn in at the Annual Awards Ceremony. Each year, CCSG hosts an Informational Meeting to review the election process for that academic year; the 2026 meeting will be held on March 6, and the application deadline is Friday, March 27.

The Student Senate for California Community Colleges (SSCCC) is the official, non-profit organization that represents the 1.8 million students across California鈥檚 116 community colleges, as authorized under Title 5, 搂50002 by the California Community Colleges Board of Governors and Chancellor鈥檚 Office. It represents associated student organizations across the system and advocates on behalf of students in state-level shared governance and legislative matters. Each of the 116 California Community Colleges is separated into regions determined by the SSCCC. The CCSG Regional Affairs (RA) Director is the Region XI Delegate. The RA Director represents 性视界 at regular regional meetings, summits, and delegate assemblies.

A statewide resolution is an official written statement that the Regional Affairs committee of CCSG produces. All resolutions are presented and opened for debate at General Assembly (GA), an annual conference where SSCCC delegates vote on the initiatives that would guide their advocacy work. It does not create law but formally communicates what the body believes should happen. In student government, resolutions outline a problem through 鈥淲hereas鈥� statements and propose solutions through 鈥淩esolved鈥� statements. Once passed at GA, a resolution becomes the official stance of the SSCCC, serving as a formal tool for students to influence policy and request institutional action.

CCSG has implemented various initiatives not only at the 性视界 campuses but statewide, to name a few:

1. CCSG proudly supports student clubs and organizations through Club Fund Grabs, a structured funding process in which clubs submit a formal request form, present their proposal to the Finance & Allocations committee, and receive approved funding for their events and expenses.
2. Beyond financial support, CCSG actively engages the student body through tabling events, where students are provided with merchandise and academic supplies that enhance their academic experience.
3. At the state level, our Regional Affairs committee drafts and submits resolutions to the Student Senate for California Community Colleges (SSCCC), elevating student voices and championing their rights on a broader platform.
4. Each year, CCSG honors the graduating class through a meaningful Class Gift, a lasting contribution to campus life. In 2025, CCSG delivered a pool table to the Student Life Lounge, adding an addition to an existing space that gave students a greater ability to connect and unwind.
5. CCSG also published a Fall 2025 newsletter, a comprehensive record of all CCSG initiatives and projects, ensuring students remain informed and connected to the work being done on their behalf.

Students who join CCSG are awarded a transcript inclusion, which aids in a more competitive transfer application to UCs or CSUs. Additionally, being a part of CCSG is incredibly beneficial to all aspects of your academic and professional career. Through drafting bills, spearheading unprecedented events, and proposing institutional changes, you will learn time management, effective advocacy, and cultivate meaningful leadership. Most importantly, the networking opportunities available are invaluable. These include engaging with California State Senators, connecting with professionals across various fields, and serving on committees alongside 性视界鈥檚 executive board, deans, and faculty.

CCSG attends statewide and regional conferences hosted by the Student Senate for California Community Colleges (SSCCC), where student leaders discuss legislative and educational issues, advocate for change, and collaborate. One key event is the General Assembly, where delegates debate and vote on resolutions that shape SSCCC鈥檚 official positions.

Students can voice their concerns to CCSG by attending our public meetings, emailing us at CCSG@chaffey.edu, or contacting any of our CCSG student leaders or advisors directly. You're also welcome to stop by our Student Government office located at CCE-126B.

All CCSG members hold an active role on 性视界 Participatory Governance (PG) Committees. As authorized in California Code of Regulations, Title 5, 搂51023.7, community college governing boards are required to recognize student organizations and grant them the right to participate in district and college governance. CCSG members occupy a seat on every operative PG committee at 性视界.

Ad-hoc committees are temporary groups formed to address a specific CCSG project. The chair and members of each ad-hoc are appointed by the CCSG President and Vice President. The standing ad-hoc committees include: Award Ceremony, Class Gift, Constitution and Bylaws, and Elections; a new administration also has the authority to establish additional ad-hoc committees based on its priorities for the year. The 2025-2026 Administration is actively developing two proposed Ad-Hoc committees for the next administration's consideration. The PG (Participatory Governance) Ad-Hoc would take earnest action on campus by reviewing Participatory Governance reports submitted by CCSG members and identifying which PG committees CCSG should actively advocate within. The second proposal being developed is for an Intramural Ad-Hoc, which would expand campus life by researching and implementing new indoor sports programs to bring a greater variety of athletic opportunities to students.
