- | Student Body Chair of Programming Responsibilities | |
- | ----- | ----- |
- | Current Language | Proposed Language |
- | Chair of Programming Shall oversee the Executive Team of SGA’s Class Programming Councils – which are tasked with providing regular programming and class-specific events. These councils will not be members of the President’s Cabinet. Class Programming Councils shall be led by an Executive Team consisting of a Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer, elected via a class-wide election. Elections for the Class Programming Council Executive Teams shall be administered by the CSE, with roles given to those who receive the greatest plurality of votes. One’s class is determined using the institutional “student classification” definition, not one’s graduation year. For instance, a student who entered the university in 2019, but is graduating in 2022, would still be considered a junior for the purpose of SGA 2021-2022 elections. Additional members of each Class Programming Council can be appointed by the three-person Class Programming Council executive team, subject to confirmation by a majority of the Senate. Shall facilitate collaboration both amongst the Class Programming Councils and amongst other programming bodies. | Chair of Programming Shall plan and oversee all General SGA events dedicated to the student body. These include but are not limited to: original events dedicated by the Chair of Programming, co-sponsorships between SGA and other clubs, and election events. Shall act as a liaison between the SGA and the SGA’s Class Programming Councils – which are tasked with providing regular programming and class-specific events. These councils will not be members of the President’s Cabinet and not led by the Chair of Programming, but led instead by the Coordinator for Class Councils in LEED. Class Programming Councils shall be led by an Executive Team consisting of a Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer, elected via a class-wide election.
