The Rector serves as a non-voting, ex- officio member of the Assembly, meaning they hold this position by virtue of their role as Rector, rather than through election or appointment. The Rector attends monthly Assembly meetings, where they submit a written report and deliver an oral update to keep student representatives informed of key initiatives, concerns, and ongoing advocacy.
Within Assembly, the Rector offers context and insight on relevant topics, poses guiding questions to support meaningful discussion, and uses Assembly dialogue to inform their work with university administration
