government at UNC–Chapel Hill is split into undergraduate student government and graduate and professional student government. The undergraduate student government consists of an executive branch headed by the student body president and a legislative branch, the undergraduate student senate. The graduate and professional student government similarly consists of an executive (with its own president) and a legislative senate. There is also a joint governance council that approves legislation affecting both undergraduate and graduate and professional students and advises the undergraduate and graduate and professional student governments. The honor system is similarly split into two branches covering undergraduate students and graduate and professional students. The Student Supreme Court, the other part of the judicial branch, consists of four associate justices and a chief justice, which are appointed by the student body president and confirmed by a two thirds vote of the senate for their part of the student body.
