The GSA Council is the governing body of the GSA. It consists of one voting member from each department with graduate students and an elected Executive Board (E-Board) of officers. Department Representatives are the voice of their departments on the GSA Council and take part in decisions on discretionary funding, GSA resolutions, and committee work. The E-Board officers recommend graduate students from the Council for appointments to university committees.
The Council meets at least three times per quarter and all graduate students are invited to attend the meetings.
