Executive Branch
The Executive Branch works in coordination with school deans and administrators to implement initiatives, policies, and programs that improve and enhance different aspects of the undergraduate experience.
Presidential Advisory Council
This advisory council will be comprised of student leaders from different backgrounds, cultures, club involvements, and academic areas to serve as student advisors to the President and Vice President. This council will meet 1-2 times a month to advise the President and Vice President on different issues, concerns, and projects in all areas of the university. The idea is to bring together student leaders from different backgrounds that can have an influence on policy creation within SA, and be a voice on behalf of their community as liaisons.
Legislative Branch
The Senate Committees are in charge of conducting research on the opinions of students relevant to submitted ideas, grievances, and suggestions. If there is strong support for an initiative based off of critical research, Senators on each Legislative Committee are responsible for authoring a resolution on the subject. After the resolution is written, edited, and approved by the Legislative Committee, it will be brought to the Senate table for discussion and a vote.
