Student Life at the College

Within Locke College, students form groups out of interest and the advantages presented by joining a majority. These organizations, over 300 of which are featured at the College, are established and maintained by the Lockean theory of fiduciary trust. This means that the legislative branch of every organization, student government or interest group is the supreme power and motivating factor. However, both club members and leaders have an interest in the success of their organization, such that a trust/trustee relationship is created. Here at Locke College, we strive for everyone's rights to a supreme education through the ideals of optimism, well-intentioned human nature and a devotion to excellence.

Student Government and Administrative Teams at the College are responsible for:
- preserving College and personal property
- protecting the freedom and uncontrolled enjoyment of all rights given by the law of nature
- abstaining from arbitrary governance
- promulgating the rules and expectations set forth by the College
- making laws for and of themselves, without transferring this power to any other hands
- ensuring the welfare of the College student body and faculty (Ebenstein, 403)
