A brief description of the institution’s formal participatory or shared governance bodies:

Graduate & Professional School Senate
The mission of the graduate student senate is to foster interaction among students through community service, social gatherings, academic and professional events, as well as to enable official and unofficial student groups. The Senate also represents the graduate and professional student population on official university committees and oversees the management and maintenance of GPSCY and Gryphon's Pub.

The 22 member elected Senate represents faculty from all ranks and divisions within the Faculty of Arts and Science at Yale. The Senate was created in 2015 to provide a more organized voice for the FAS faculty, to highlight and investigate issues of FAS concern, and to foster greater communication between the members of the FAS and the Yale administration.

A brief description of the campus-community council or equivalent body that gives external stakeholders a regular voice in institutional decisions that affect them:
Within the City of New Haven, Community Management Teams (CMT) are organized in each of New Haven's ten community policing districts. A CMT consists of residents and businesses within the district who have organized to serve as a forum for problem solving and information exchange centering around neighborhood issues that are of the most concern to the group. The University supports, regularly attends, and participates in these meetings and involves the communities in discussions about new projects and developments.
