Senate Meeting Gallery Guide
The area of seats reserved for students at senate meetings is called the

need to know to understand a meeting, including common senate terms, how to
speak to the senate, and the process for passing a bill. This guide is
especially useful for groups who come to senate because of Regular or
Special Allocation bills that are being debated for their club.
