At Columbia, a governing board refers to one of the several bodies that govern specific student activities and organizations.

Interschool
The Interschool Governing Board (IGB) is a somewhat separate governing board from the other five. IGB recognizes student groups that consist of both graduate and undergraduate students. However, only a small number of groups are recognized by and receive funding from IGB, and thus the interaction between this board and the undergraduate body is very minute, though growing each year.
