Committees

The way SA works is it is comprised of several different committees. Each committee is responsible for a different aspect of student life. Projects are created and divvied up between committee members so each member has a job to do. However, any project that you are interested in starting (even if it doesn’t directly correlate with your committee) you are encouraged to pursue. Projects that require funding or assembly support (if they are going to be presented to the administration) are written up as legislation (as either a resolution / proposal / amendment). The legislation is then presented at the GA meeting where it is voted on and (hopefully) passed. Therefore, committees are where the real work of SA is accomplished and the GA is where committees’ ideas are presented to the assembly as a whole and voted on.
