Structure of OIL
editThis model legislature convenes in the Oklahoma State Capitol for five days, typically in November and April. It consists of a Senate and a House of Representatives, a Supreme Court, an Executive Branch, and a Press Corps.
The Senate consists of up to six (6) students from each participating college and university, and the House of Representatives consists of at least six (6) students from each participating college and university, with each school being given an additional two (2) seats for every 1,000 students enrolled at that college or university.
The Supreme Court consists of up to nine (9) justices, being led by the Chief Justice. To be a justice on the Supreme Court, they must have competed as an attorney in the Moot Court Competition, be appointed by the Governor, and confirmed by the Senate. Similarly to the actual Supreme Court of Oklahoma, each student justice must be voted on to be retained as a justice in a general election, in which every participating student in the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature has the opportunity to vote. The Supreme Court also consists of students who serve as Attorneys, where they compete in a Moot Court Competition.
The Press Corps consists of students who serve as members of the media, competing in press corps competition. It is led by the Press Secretary. The Press Corps competition consists of each student reporter conducting interviews both on and off camera, writing articles, and doing general reporting on the events that occur during each legislative session.
The Executive Branch consists of a Governor and Lieutenant Governor, who are elected during each Spring Session and serve until the adjournment Sine Die of the following Spring Session. The Executive Branch also contains a gubernatorially appointed cabinet consisting of an Attorney General, Secretary of State, Press Secretary, and Directors of Technology, Budget and Finance, Fundraising, Recruitment, Retention, Diversity and Inclusion, and other positions that may be created by either the Governor or by the Legislature.
During each Spring Legislative Session, officers are elected and appointed to serve on the Board of Directors and Steering Committee, which governs the organization for the following year.
