Bill Strengthening Group (BSG) Sessions

After the conclusion of the Pre-Legislative Session, students are encouraged to sign up for Bill Strengthening Group Sessions during the two weeks leading up to the final Bill Submission in April.  BSGs are 30-60 minute sessions run by the Committee Chair and have 3-5 delegates attend.  The more intimate session allows more direct interaction between the Officer and Delegate, as well as affording Delegates an opportunity to get to know other Delegates in their Committee prior to Conference.

 

The following is the focus of BSGs during the two week run time:

 

Week 1 of BSGs (Dates TBA)

• Helping to flush out Bill Topics for students who have yet to write their bill

• Asking questions that help Delegates think more critically about the pros and cons of their bill

• Ensuring accuracy/adherence to Bill writing guidelines

• Getting feedback from other Delegates regarding their bill topic

​

Week 2 of BSGs (Dates TBA)

• Assisting in the presentation of a Delegate’s Bill

• Ensuring Delegates have a thought out / written out Opening Statement and Summation for their Bill

• Helping to strengthen the arguments for and combating against those arguments against

• Getting feedback from other Delegates regarding their bill presentation

• Open the floor for any Co-Sponsor support as needed

​

After registration closes, delegates will be assigned to their respective groups.
