Referenda are to be vetted by the Student Government Association Executive Board using the following criteria: adherence to Northeastern policies/legality and fairness of wording. In the case that there are more than 5 referenda approved by the Executive Board, the proposals will then be passed forward for voting by the Senate on which 5 will appear on the ballot. More information about the details of the referenda process can be found in the SGA Bylaws Article V Section C.
