Section 1: Composition

Members of the US shall be elected from two districts of the undergraduate student population: the Upperclass District and the At- Large District, in accordance with Article II Section 3.A.3 of the ASSU Constitution.
Seats in the At-Large District are filled from the at-large undergraduate student population. The 12 candidates with the highest vote totals shall be the new members of the At-Large District of the US.
Seats in the Upperclass District are to be filled in accordance with the following policies:
1. The three upperclass candidates, as defined in Article II Section 3.A.3 of the ASSU Constitution, receiving the most votes shall be the new members of the Upperclass District of the US, provided that they also meet the requirements designated in Appendix I, Section 2.A and receive at least two-thirds as many votes as the at- large candidate with the thirteenth most votes.
2. If candidates seeking a seat in the Upperclass District do not receive two-thirds as many votes as the at-large candidate with the thirteenth most votes, they will only be elected to the US if they finish within the top fifteen candidates overall.
