Greetings,
I was wondering about all your universitities out there, to what extend can students participate in the running of your university?
At my university, it's quite extensive. There are 8 students sitting on the university Board (yours truly included for the science faculty), and in any council you can imagine, be it on the university, faculty or department level. Roughly 20% of the votes in any of these things are in the hands of students.
Special mention goes to the Social Council, which decides the policy for every social instance imaginable : housing, the cafeteria, student grants, the medical facilities, the sport infrastructure... This is entirely in the hands of students, with advisors from the university administration of course.
So, how are things done where you come from? Do students have a say in how things are done in your university?
