Senate
The SGA Senate is
comprised of 15 students elected by the student
body. Within the SGA, the Senate is a chamber in
the bicameral legislature. It is a forum for campus
issues, in command of student budgets, and
coordinates recognition for Recognized Student
Organizations.
There are four standing
committees within the Senate. The Senate Budget
Committee (SBC) is responsible for allocating funds
to all fixed budget groups on campus. The Senate
Auditing Committee monitors club expenses and
enforces the budget restraints imposed by the SBC.
The RSO Committee recognizes and classifies all
campus clubs and organizations. The Senate
Executive Committee meets with officers from the
Cabinet and advises on policy issues. In addition
Senate membership elects a Speaker who presides over
meetings and chairs the Executive Committee. They
also elect a Legislative Secretary who ensures that
all legislation is worded correctly and does not
conflict with SGA by-laws or the Constitution. The
Legislative Secretary is also responsible for the
minutes of meetings.
The Senate will meet every
Sunday between the hours of 7 pm and 8:30 pm. Students
are welcome and encouraged to attend and participate in
all meetings.
