Executive Branch

Executive Branch
The power of the Executive Branch is vested in the President and Vice President of the ASCSU. The President is responsible for implementing and enforcing the laws written by Senate and, to that end, appoints the heads of the Executive Branch. The Vice President is also part of the Executive Branch, ready to assist the President whatever the need be.
Established in Section 305 of the ASCSU Constitution, the Cabinet’s role is to advise the President on any subject he or she may require relating to the duties of each member’s respective office.
