Section I.B: The Organization of the College

Legally established under a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees, in whose hands the direction of the institution finally rests, Lewis & Clark College in practice adheres to age-old principles of shared governance. Through explicit delegations of authority and with mutual trust, the trustees, officers, faculties, and students of the College discharge their separate responsibilities and work together to ensure that its mission is upheld and its best possible future achieved.
