(The following is a reproduction of the Constitution of the Faculty Senate and the Council, adopted by the General Faculty 3/10/67; approved by the President of the University and by the State Board of Regents 4/14/67, and as amended by vote of the Faculty, and approval by the President and by the Board of Regents 11/14/69.)

2.8(5) Partnership of the Student Governments of Iowa (PGSI).
(Amended 9/93; 10/95; 4/07)

Preamble. The formation of the Partnership of Student Governments of Iowa (PSGI) seeks to implement an effective and representative government of all of the students of The University of Iowa. The formation of distinct undergraduate and graduate and professional governmental structures enables independent work but also allows for and encourages cooperation and collaboration among the entirety of student leaders. Indeed, a successful partnership is contingent upon open and honest communication and collaboration between the University of Iowa Student Government (UISG) and the Executive Council of Graduate and Professional Students (ECGPS); a failure to do so puts at risk effective representation of the students of The University of Iowa. At its core, the PSGI seeks to demonstrate a commitment to the service not only of all students of The University of Iowa, but also of the greater University community, embracing the principles of shared governance that value collaboration between faculty, staff, and student leaders in the service of the University and its members.
