Answer: (D)

Elections described for a semesterly cycle happen twice a year, aligning with the academic calendar so leadership changes occur with the start of each new semester. This means elections are held at points like November and April chapter meetings, and the elected roles serve for a single semester rather than the whole year. The setup ensures that positions such as secretary, service chair, public relations chair, recruitment chair, and social chair—among others—rotate every semester.

Short context: serving semester-long terms keeps leadership fresh and responsive to current member needs, while giving committees predictable start and end points alongside the school calendar.

Other options focus on timing differently (annual elections for year-long terms) or on vote counting procedures or governance rules that aren’t about when elections occur or how long terms last, so they don’t describe the semesterly election timing and term length.
