Greener Organization

GO letterhead

The Greener Organization (GO) is a leadership organization comprised entirely of students on campus at Evergreen.  The mission of the GO is to enhance residential life through programming, services, and support for students. 

When we meet:

The GO meets every Wednesday at 4pm in the Student Leadership Office located on the second floor of A building!

What we do:

We act as the hall government as well as the Student Activities Board for residential students.  Our main purpose is to serve residents by determining which activities will best benefit our diverse population and how those activities will be structured. We also manage the Free Store! We work closely with RAs and NRHH to provide tons of social opportunities every year ranging from ice cream socials to full-out freshman orientation programs. The GO participates in regional and national NACURH conferences. The goal is to share and learn from other hall governments.

Who we are:

The GO is a representative governing body (meaning there is one rep for each "area" plus five officers) who meet every week to work on programs, service projects and policies for RAD.  Each officer holds 5 open hours per week in the GO office.  See resources below for contact information:
