Student Supreme Court had its first meeting Thursday night at Booth Library.

Things such as what court cases to take and getting news out to the student body were discussed at the meeting.

“We are there for those cases where justice have not been served,” Adviser Ken Baker said. “We are more of a consideration than the deciding body.”

Jacob Griffin, chief justice of Student Supreme Court, said the court would need decide what cases are valid.

John Hamilton, associate justice of Student Supreme Court, said the most important aspect is deciding if a student actually needs the court.

“We are going to do it the same way as the regular United States Supreme Court,” Hamilton said. “We will see if a case is worth hearing.”
