About Council of Graduate Students


The Council of Graduate Students (COGS) functions as the Student Government body for Regent University’s seven graduate schools. The students of each school elect two senators to serve as a representative voice on important issues. A chaplain and two representatives are also selected. COGS serves as the liaison between students and the university administration. 

Dede Robertson was the leading force behind the creation of COGS. Her goal was for students on campus to have a voice. Fulfilling her dream, COGS seeks to communicate the needs of students to the administration, faculty, and staff. 

However, COGS plays an important part in the daily lives of students. Its members also serve as spiritual leaders on campus. Additionally, COGS hosts numerous events designed to unify students from all seven schools. These events bring together individuals with different backgrounds, callings, and testimonies through chapels, coffee houses, picnics, meet & greets, or other special events.
