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:
“Just as a new scientific discovery manifests something that was already latent in the order of nature, and at the same time is logically related to the total structure of the existing science, so the new poem manifests something that was already latent in the order of words.”
—Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
“Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.”
—Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)
“The question is still asked of women: “How do you propose to answer the need for child care?” That is an obvious attempt to structure conflict in the old terms. The questions are rather: “If we as a human community want children, how does the total society propose to provide for them?””
—Jean Baker Miller (20th century)
