The Lord Rector of the University of St Andrews is the president of the University Court of the University of St Andrews ; the University Court is the supreme governing body of the university.
Overview [ edit ]
The Rector is elected every three years by the matriculated students of the university.[1] [2] The current office of Rector , sometimes termed Lord Rector, was instituted by the Universities (Scotland) Act 1858 , passed by the Parliament of the United Kingdom . The Universities (Scotland) Acts regulate the governance of the ancient universities of Scotland , and require the election of a Rector for the universities of Aberdeen , Edinburgh , Glasgow , and St Andrews.[3] The newer University of Dundee also elects a Rector due to its historical ties to St Andrews, whereas other modern universities do not.[2]
Since 1970 the Rector has appointed a student as Rector's Assessor, who is a full voting member of the University Court, and also serves as a member of the students' representative council . As of September 2023 the position of Rector's Assessor has been vacant.[4] [5]
