The Creighton Student Union is divided into three branches: the executives, the cabinet, and the representatives. The format of these three branches allows for equal representation among undergraduates and professional students. Equal representation is reached because undergraduates have a majority in the representative body, and professional students have a majority in the cabinet. The elected positions on executive board are elected by all students on campus, and therefore are representing all Creighton students.
For legislation to pass it must go through each body. A piece of legislation begins in the representative body, and if it is approved, it is sent to the cabinet. If the cabinet approves the legislation, it is passed to the executives. If the executives pass the legislation, then it becomes part of the bylaws.
