Historically SGA has been a place where conflict and harm issues have been rooted in power struggles along with exclusionary practices with respect to GPA and credit hour requirements. In an effort to provide a more equitable student union that offers participation of all our constituents TSAC has done away with those requirements. Any active MSU Denver student is eligible to run for office and all active council members have equal voting power. Currently, the council is made up of 12 student leaders.

12 council members
2 SACAB representatives
1 Board of Trustee representative

*Note: As of 01/26/2024, there have been 2 vacancies of councilors. More information to come in actionable steps.
