Short Title: Term Limitation Act (Public)

Sponsored by: Senator HINTON

First Reading: August 25, 2004 Version Date: August 17, 2004

Referred to: __________________________________________________________

WHEREAS, it is common procedure for officers elected democratically to serve a limited

number of terms, yet the North Carolina State Student Body Statutes currently have

no rule regarding the number of terms per major office within Student

Government; and,

WHEREAS, Student Government officers that serve longer than two consecutive terms have the

possibility to become stagnant, power-seeking, or repulsive to the student body and

the organized government; now, therefore

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

Section 1. Student Body Statutes 7-1 shall be amended by inserting the rule:

A candidate may not run for this office after serving two consecutive terms in this role.

To 7-1.12., 7-1.13., 7-1.14., 7-1.15., and 7-1.17..

Section 2. This act shall be effective upon its enrollment.
