Student Body President
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Student Body President is usually the leader of a Student Council in a high school or college. Student Body Presidents are generally elected via one of two methods:
- By the Student Council, usually out of its own membership.
- By the general student body, during elections held after the Student Council has been selected.
The primary duties of the Student Body President usually include working with students to resolve problems, and informing school leaders (including the principal or college president) of ideas emanating from the student body. The term of a Student Body President is one year in most schools.
The role of Student Body President is commonly confused with that of a Class President which is a different position, in that a Class President only represents one class of students.
