Six Cornell College students have been elected to the Student Senate executive council.
The students are:
President: Will Dinneen
Vice President: Jack Bethel
Chair of Academic Affairs: Cody Hopewell
Chair of Appropriations: Sean McKenna
Chair of Student Life: Kalissa Holdcraft
Chair of Organizations: Michael Bailey
Their terms run through next February.
Student Senate is composed of an executive branch (called the Executive Council) and a legislative branch (called the General Assembly). These two branches meet on the first three Tuesdays of the block to discuss student concerns, faculty legislation, requests for funding, and request to start new student organizations.
The Executive Council is composed of the President, Vice President, Academic Affairs Chair, Appropriations Chair, Organizations Chair, and Student Life Chair. The body’s primary goals are to oversee the work of the standing committees, to provide recommendations to Student Senate on long terms goals and to help ensure that Senate’s work is transparent to students.
