Every resident of the Griesedieck Complex (Griesedieck, Walsh, and Clemens Halls) is automatically a member of the Griesedieck Hall Council. Each floor has one elected representative who holds the vote for the floor at the weekly meetings. There are six Executive Board positions that are also elected by the General Body.

There are also several standing and ad hoc committees that any member can participate on these committees and will be responsible for many different aspects of your life in the residence hall.
