Constitution & History

 
 

The current SGA Constitution was first adopted on April 17, 2000 to create the underpinnings ofgovernment here at Holy Cross. The Constitution serves as the framework upon which student government operates.St. Joseph's Chapel in the sunlight It does not operate in the minutiae of daily operations. Instead, it focuses on the broader structure of government. The Constitution was amended twice in 2002 and underwent serious revisions in the 2002-2003 academic year, which included the creation of the Senate.

The SGA Bylaws are a more free-form document that operates solely at the discretion of the Senate. The bylaws can be modified at any time by a majority of the Senate. While the Constitution deals with structure, the Bylaws focus on operation. More detailed rules and operational standards are included in the document. The Bylaws underwent significant revisions in the 2003-2004 academic year.
