Students interested in this program must first go through the Student Government Leadership Council in the Fall semester. The coordinators divide students, guided by the student interest, into separate councils for each branch. The Executive Leadership Council, Senate Leadership Council, and Judicial Leadership Council allow students to spend the spring semester immersed within their preferred area. The SGLC application can be found on KnightConnect under Student Government Executive Branch under forms.

The Judicial Leadership Council is a training and mentorship program that allows students to immerse themselves in the Judicial Branch of Student Government. The program consists of weekly meetings and mentorship with current Justices. The goal of the Judicial Leadership Council is to immerse students in the operations of the Judicial Branch so that they are prepared to apply for a position within and can readily and successfully transition from a Judicial Leadership Council member to an Associate Justice. Participants in the program will be taught about the responsibilities of the Judicial Branch such as parking appeals, student conduct hearings, grade appeals, judicial review, and outreach programs.
Most importantly, participants in the Judicial Leadership Council will learn how to be an unbiased leader and how to serve in the best interests of students. After this program, students will be ready and able to apply to serve as Justices on SG’s Judicial Council.
