The Executive Committee
The executive positions within AUSA are one-year sabbatical positions for which any student may stand. An annual election takes place in April or May for the following year's committee. There are also a number of non-sabbatical positions, which are again students elected on a yearly basis, by a series of unhealthy election campaigns. Questions are raised each year, about the environmental effect of the number of posters distributed around the campus.

Famous quotes containing the words executive and/or committee:
“... the wife of an executive would be a better wife had she been a secretary first. As a secretary, you learn to adjust to the boss’s moods. Many marriages would be happier if the wife would do that.”
—Anne Bogan, U.S. executive secretary. As quoted in Working, book 1, by Studs Terkel (1973)
“It is easy to carp at colleges, and the college, if he will wait for it, will have its own turn. Genius exists there also, but will not answer a call of a committee of the House of Commons. It is rare, precious, eccentric, and darkling.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
