Any organization has a president, a treasurer and a secretary -- those are the ones who have the authority to sign contracts, checks, or anything. A CEO is some kind of fantasy title which does not have any legal meaning nor any authority -- that's why in most corporations the CEO is also the president (or the president acts as the CEO) and some corporations have fantasy titles (I still prefer King)
Usually a student group has a president to stay in line with how things are in the real world. But some students feel it gives their resume more cachet if they are the CEO of a group -- especially business plan competitions call their head honchos CEO in the hope this will help them to sway more influcence in the venture scene. This just confuses from the real issue -- who is calling the shots - who is the president?
By the way I am the Chief Blogging Officer, King, CEO and everything else of titleoftheday.blogspot.com -- if I would add that to my resume would you hire me? So why are you going after some CEO of some student group to better cafeteria food?
