Referred to: __________________________________________________________.

WHEREAS, on two occasions amendments made by the Student Senate to acts of legislation amending the Student Body Statutes failed to appear in the final engrossed copy of the legislation; and,

WHEREAS, an expectation exists that amendments passed by the Student Senate become part of the final version of an act of legislation; and,

WHEREAS, for the will of the Student Senate to be served, these errors must be corrected; now, therefore be it

ENACTED, by the North Carolina State University Student Senate that:

Section 1. Student Body Statutes, §3-2(c) shall be moved to §3-3(c).

Section 2. Student Body Statutes §6-1, shall amended be struck and reinserted as §6-2(a), so that §6-2 reads:
“§6-2. Student Body Documents.

(a) Student Body Documents Defined. The Student Body Documents shall be defined as the official Student Body Constitution, as ratified by the Student Body and amended, if applicable, by a referendum of that Body; as well as the Student Body Statutes as passed and amended by the Student Senate.

(b) The Student Government Office shall publish annually, at the beginning of the fall semester, the Student Body Documents, a letter-sized, three-ring bound volume containing the Student Body Constitution and these Statutes. This volume shall be distributed to all Student Government Officials and, upon request, any other member of the University community.

(c) The Student Government Office shall prepare amended pages to update the current Student Body Documents within five (5) class days of the enactment of any amendment to these Statutes, or the passage of any referendum amending the Student Body Constitution. These pages shall be distributed to all Student Government Officials, such that they may have an up-to-date version of the Student Body Documents.”

Section 3. This act shall be effective upon its enrollment.
