Policies & Budget

Constitution & By-Laws:

You can view the Constitution & By-Laws by clicking here.

These documents are currently undergoing a Constitutional Review (this happens every three years), so expect to vote on the proposed changes at the beginning of the 2026 school year!

If you have any questions or concerns, please email the parliamentarian at browncollegeparliamentarian@rice.edu.

Room Assignment Policy:

You can download a copy of the Room Assignment Policy by clicking here!

Due to recent university-wide changes to what Brown calls “the Bump” (housing eligibility), this document will change during the ‘26-’27 school year.

If you have any questions, please email the IVP (brownivp@gmail.com) or the College Coordinator (browncollege@rice.edu).
