Structure
Student government at NYU begins at the school level. Each school or college has its own student council. Student council presidents come together with the elected and appointed Student Senators from each school to form the SSC’s largest committee, University Committee on Student Life, which makes recommendations to the Student Senators Council.
The SSC is made up of 15 Student Senators elected by the students of the various schools and colleges of NYU and 8 Student Senators appointed at-large by the Executive Committee of the University Senate with the advice and consent of the elected Student Senators.
The executive committee of the SSC and UCSL consists of an SSC Vice chairperson, a UCSL Vice chairperson, and the SSC/UCSL chairperson elected. The executive committee is elected by the 15 elected Student Senators for a one year term at the last SSC meeting of the academic year.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:
“... the structure of our public morality crashed to earth. Above its grave a tombstone read, “Be tolerant—even of evil.” Logically the next step would be to say to our commonwealth’s criminals, “I disagree that it’s all right to rob and murder, but naturally I respect your opinion.” Tolerance is only complacence when it makes no distinction between right and wrong.”
—Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 2, ch. 2 (1962)
“Who says that fictions only and false hair
Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
Is all good structure in a winding stair?
May no lines pass, except they do their duty
Not to a true, but painted chair?”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
“What is the most rigorous law of our being? Growth. No smallest atom of our moral, mental, or physical structure can stand still a year. It grows—it must grow; nothing can prevent it.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
