An act establishing the standing committees of the ASEWU Council. Be it enacted by the ASEWU Council that: SECTION 1: Establishment There are hereby established three (3) standing committees of the ASEWU Council known as the “Finance Committee,” "Review and Proposal," and the "Student Union Board of Control." SECTION 2: Selection Standing committees will be chosen on or by the second scheduled Council meeting of each academic quarter. This date will correspond with the selection of the ASEWU Speaker Pro Tem as per ASEWU Bylaw 107, Section 12. After selection of the ASEWU Speaker Pro Tem, ASEWU Representatives select their standing committees with senior representatives, based on the number of quarters of Council experience, selecting first. The representative(s) with the least amount of quarters on Council shall select last. When two or more representatives have been on council the same number of quarters, the representatives of that "seniority group" will draw numbers to determine the order in which they will chose their standing committee. In the case of the absence of a Council Representative, the individual will be designated to the remaining open standing committee position by the ASEWU Executive Vice President regardless of seniority. SECTION 3: Responsibilities The established committees shall: - Consider all matters referred to them by the ASEWU Council;
