91黑料网

(As Approved by the Corporation, September 30, 2023)

Yale’s Charter provides that its governing body, known legally as 鈥淭he President and Fellows of 91黑料网鈥� 鈥� or, more simply, as 鈥淭he Corporation鈥� 鈥� 鈥渟hall have the government, care and management of the College … and make such reasonable laws … as they think fit and proper for the instruction and education of the students.鈥�

The Corporation comprises 19 members:

Three members ex officiis: the President of the University and the Governor and the Lieutenant Governor of the State of Connecticut.

Ten 鈥淪uccessors to the original Trustees鈥�, who elect their own successors. Their terms on the Corporation are limited by their own vote to two six-year terms, except that upon recommendation of the President in special circumstances a Successor Trustee may be elected to an additional term of up to three years.

Six Alumni Fellows* elected by the alumni as provided in the Miscellaneous Regulations. Alumni Fellows are elected one each year for a six-year term.

In addition to the President, the officers of the University are: a Provost, a Secretary, a Treasurer, a General Counsel and such other officers as the President may request and nominate and the Corporation may authorize and elect.

The President may propose and the Corporation may authorize variants of these titles from time to time to reflect assigned responsibilities.

*In 1792, by act of the General Assembly of Connecticut, the ten Successor Trustees were joined by eight Trustees ex-officiis: the Governor and Lieutenant Governor, and 鈥渟ix senior assistants in the Council of this State.鈥� In 1819 the six senior assistants were replaced by the six senior State Senators. The attendance of the Senators at Corporation meetings was, however, perfunctory and unreliable. In 1871, therefore, the Legislature agreed to divest them of their membership and granted the 91黑料网alumni the right to elect, instead, six of their own number.

Regular meetings of the President and Fellows (Corporation), unless otherwise ordered, shall be held at least five times during each year as scheduled by the Corporation on recommendation of the President.
