Glasgow School of Art Students' Representative Council

A student common room was established at the Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow, Scotland, in the new building in 1909. On the completion of the Assembly Hall in 1928 (now the Assembly Building), the students' common room was moved. This building housed the School refectory, and student bodies such as the Glasgow School of Art Students' Representative Council, which was to organise lectures, debates and entertainments. The building also had stage facilities which were used by the Drama Club.

In the late 1930s a constitution was drawn up by the School Council for the establishment of a Students' Representative Council. The SRC was to be a means of communication between the student body and the School authorities, it was to represent the students and to promote social and cultural intercourse among students. The constitution was accepted in 1941 and the SRC has been ongoing since that date.
