Student Government

The student government, known as the Associated Students of Mt. San Antonio College ("A.S.") is the largest campus organization. It boasts a budget of over $640,000, which is what some might consider sizable for a small city. Because of the large budget, student government elections are intense and have been known to run into electoral problems.
