Council of Student Body Presidents

The Council of Student Body Presidents was organized in 1979 with the primary purpose of improving communication among students attending the professional schools of the Health Sciences Center. This Group also expresses student opinion and interest to the administration and implements various programs which concern all students. Each May, the newly elected presidents representing the various schools meet to elect a chairperson. This person, in addition to conducting meetings and other Council business, is the designated representative to The LSU System Council of Student Body Presidents from the Health Sciences Center. A member of The LSU System Council of Student Body Presidents is selected yearly for appointment by the Governor to serve as the student member of the LSU Board of Supervisors.
