Faculty Senate

The Faculty Senate serves as the major legislative, advisory and review body for Cornell faculty. Its role is to serve as a voice for university faculty in accordance with the principles of shared governance and academic freedom.
The Assemblies provides an effective channel for faculty members to join students and staff on university committees to discuss campus-wide issues and concerns and meaningfully engage with members of every campus constituency, particularly through representation on the University Assembly and its committees. Visit the Office of the Dean of Faculty for more details.

Constituent-Elected Trustees

Cornell is one of relatively few institutions of higher education in the nation whose campus community directly elects constituent members to the Board of Trustees, its highest governing body. Students (alternating between undergraduate and a graduate or professional student) are elected to serve two-year terms, while faculty and staff are elected for four-year terms—all as full voting members of the board.
