A brief description of the institution’s formal participatory or shared governance bodies:
Princeton has multiple formal, participatory and shared governance bodies through which academic and non-academic staff regularly participate in the institution's governance and focused on an array of areas including resource planning, equity & diversity, space programming and planning, and others.
One committee in particular, The Council of the Princeton University Community (CPUC), was established in 1969 as "a permanent conference of the representatives of all major groups of the University” where “they could each raise problems that concern them and … be exposed to each other’s views.” The CPUC examines and makes recommendations on questions of policy that govern and affect the welfare of the University community. Chaired by the University’s president, the council is composed of academic staff, non-academic staff, students and alumni. Standing committees of the CPUC include The Executive Committee, and committees on the following areas: Rights & Rules, Governance, Priorities, Resources and the Judicial Committee.
