Makeup of the Government
For those that do not know, UF has a political system much like the Federal Government.
The Executive Branch is composed of a President and Vice President and Treasurer. They get elected every Spring.
There is a Judiciary Branch in the form of a 7 person Supreme Court, appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. All justices must be a law school student.
Finally, there is the Student Senate. The senate is comprised of 100 students, with 1 election in the Fall semester and 1 in the Spring. 50 seats are voted on each election. In the fall, the seats are distributed by where a student physically resides: Either in an on-campus residence hall, or an off campus district/zipcode. In the Spring the seats are distributed by class and college.
