Student Life
Gonzaga Student Body Association ("GSBA"), is in charge of the clubs and activities on campus. Elections for offices such as President, Vice President, and Senator take place annually during the fall.
In addition, the university requires all Freshman and Sophomore students reside on campus.
The Knights and Setons are Gonzaga’s sophomore service clubs that are made up of 60 sophomores (30 men make up the Knights, and 30 women make up the Setons). Every year, the Knights and Setons raise money for a charity of their choice, their most successful fund raiser being the charity ball held every fall. They do charity work all over the university and are involved in events such as New Student Orientation and Graduation.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:
“Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
“But the mother’s yearning, that completest type of the life in another life which is the essence of real human love, feels the presence of the cherished child even in the debased, degraded man.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
