Every council member is a campus leader with many responsibilities and obligations including, participating on ASC standing or ad hoc committees, attending ASC meetings, regularly communicating, involving and polling constituents regarding issues, representing the views of administrative staff in the public arena and participating in policy making at Bowling Green State University. A list of committees, active council members, and specific constituent listings can be found by using the navigation on the left.

Each year, following the election of ASC representatives, the Election Committee requests nominees for officers from the Executive Committee and the general administrative staff via public notice. The entire administrative staff votes for the three positions of Chair, Chair-Elect, and Secretary.
