Student
Government
Student Government is the premier debating chamber of the Students'
Union. This means that Government is MUSU's principle decision
making body.
It
meets three times per semester and has around 39 voting members
drawn from the Executive Committee, Campus Committees and
Student Reps. There are also directly elected positions. Apart
from the Executive Committee these positions operate on a
voluntary, part-time basis.
This
committee has the principle responsibility of ensuring that
the Executive Committee is held to account and that Students'
Union policy is passed and upheld.
All
students have the right to attend Student Government meetings.
Executive
Committee
The Executive Committee is made up of the four directly elected
officers, drawn from the student body and on paid sabbatical
leave, as well as the Campus Chairs from each major campus,
six Liberation Officers and one minor site representative
for the Health Campus. These are part-time voluntary positions.
The
Executive Committee makes policy decisions about the running
of the Students' Union and oversees the implementation of
Students' Union policy. The Committee meets every two weeks,
rotating around the four major campuses and is open to any
member of MUSU to attend as an observer.

Campus
Committees
Each campus has its own Campus Committee. It consists of nine
members, one of which is the Campus Chair, plus the sabbatical
officer(s) for that campus. The role of the committee is to
feed students' campus-specific problems into Student Government
via the sabbatical officers and to communicate the decisions
of Student Government to students. They also help to solve
difficulties and make recommendations to Student Government.
The
Chair of each Campus Committee is also a member of the Executive
Committee.
Campus
Committees can call open campus meetings.
The
Campus Committee has responsibility for promoting the Union's
campaign work at campus level.
The
Campus Committee has the right to carry out campus-based campaigns
as long as they do not contravene Union policy or run in opposition
to existing Union campaigns
Campus
Forums
Any student representatives can go to their relevant Campus
Forum. This is your unique opportunity to face a wide range
of university staff all at the same time! If you have an issue
that is specific to your campus, which is academic, administrative
or concerned with university student support services you
can come along any time. For details of where and when meetings
happen and for details of previous meetings go to www.mdx.ac.uk/24-7/campusforums/index.htm
or ask your campus sabbatical.
