When I was at UGA, the SGA didn't have any real power.
There's a clause (or used to be) in the SGA constitution that gives students a chance to abolish the SGA every so many years. So, since you couldn't rely on using the SGA for anything since it could disappear every four years, I think it was, the big power issues for SGA, like student activity fee allocation, etc. had to be handled by different organizations or committees.
It was still dominated by Greeks, but there wasn't anything to dominate. Some years not even a full slate of senate candidates ran in the election.
From what I understand from talking to my former students there now, SGA elections are a big deal and are hotly contested. I suspect that Greeks can still put together a voting block but that other non-greek kids are pretty type A as well and are probably pretty well represented.
But again, I'm not sure what really power SGA holds these days.
