Student Council

The CalArts Student Council represents the CalArts student body by providing an open forum for students to express concerns about the Institute; serving as liaisons to the Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, and staff; and providing for the student body by using and distributing funds collected through the student activity fee. The Student Council functions to unite the student body in order to foster a fully interdisciplinary, progressive and creative environment.
