Rut the organization is respon sible for a multitude of activities, including but not limited to assist ing in tuition deliberations, fund ing other student organizations, representing students at Board of Trustees meetings, trying students for Honor Code violations and planning events such as Fall Fest. One of the most distinguishing features of student government at UNC is that it is entirely student run. Flections occur in February, and winners are inaugurated in April. Student government is divided into three branches: the legislative, the executive and the judicial. Each branch acts independently of each other, but they all rely on mutual cooperation to achieve common goals. Student Congress Congress, the supreme legisla tive body, is in charge of oversee ing student fees and working with election laws. One of Congress' most impor tant duties is distributing close to $500,000 in student fees to different student groups around campus. "Student Congress is the voice of the students." Speaker Tim Nichols said. "We have direct constituents we try to work toward their issues." Congress' 41 representatives are chosen from 10 different districts around and off campus. Each rep resentative must belong to one of three standing committees and might be involved in other non permanent committees. Executive branch The executive branch, perhaps the most visible of the student gov ernment branches on campus, is headed by Student Body President J.J. Raynor. In addition to the president, the executive branch consists of the LLtir Dnilii (Lor Hrrl rice president, treasurer, secretary, senior adviser and chief of staff. It also includes the Graduate and Professional Student Federation president. Other members of the branch include a large Cabinet and numerous committee mem bers. As president, Raynor is in charge of signing legislation passed by Congress into law. In addition, Raynor and her administration will strive to accomplish the goals set in her platform when she was elected. Among the administration's goals this year are a Carolina “Wiki", a Wikipedia-like Web site for UNC students, a UNC “Pick-a- Prof" system and the creation of a student ombuds office. Judicial branch The judicial branch of student government consists of the attorney general s office, the Honor Court and the Honor System Outreach. Aside from the four service acad emies, UNC is the only university to offer a fully student-run judicial system. The main purpose of the Honor Court is to take care of Honor Code violations, which range from cheat ing on an exam to getting a DUI. If there is enough evidence against a student, the attorney general will charge him or her with an Honor Code violation, and the case will be presented at Honor Court. Actions that can be taken against students convicted of Honor Code violations can range from attend ing a mandatory five-week class on the Honor Code to suspension and expulsion from the University.
