Governance on the campus at California State University, Fullerton is the responsibility of the president and administrative staff. Working closely with the president are a number of faculty, student affairs and student groups that initiate, review and/or recommend for approval various university programs, policies and procedures. Although the president is vested with the final authority for all university activities, maximum faculty and staff participation in campus decision-making and governance has become traditional. Students also are actively involved, with student representatives included on almost all university, college and departmental committees and policymaking bodies.
