Question: With emphasis on the Guild of Students elections write a letter to a parent or guardian explaining the differences between student government and national government.
Dear Parent or Guardian,
I am writing a letter to inform you about the differences between a student government and a national government. Before we go any further in discussing the differences one should know what each government is about. A student government as it relates to the Guild of Students at the University of the West Indies (U.W.I) is a body of university students in charge of “communication between the student body and authorities of the university” while a national government is any political organization put in place to maintain control of a nation. In essence it is the central form of government of any country that super cedes the student government.
Before a government is formed one has to go through several processes with the first being the nomination of candidates. In a student government as well as a national government persons are nominated to fulfill certain roles in the interest of those they serve. After candidates are nominated they are given the opportunity to persuade individuals on why they are the best fit the role they wish to serve in. An election which is an organized event at which somebody is chosen by vote for something, especially a public office is called.
Some of the clear differences between the student government and national government are the structure of their government body, the way in which they are governed as well as the way power is administered.
The Student Government and the University of the West Indies is more commonly known as the Guild of Students. The guild of students offers membership to the entire school population which consists of matriculated students (full time and part time), associate members and honorary
