The original student body consisted of 17 young men and women from local high schools. The college was renamed \"George Mason College\" in late 1959 and moved to its first permanent campus at Fairfax during the fall of 1964. George Mason College became independent of the University of Virginia on April 7, 1972 and was renamed George Mason University. In 1979 George Mason's acquisition of the International School of Law in Arlington was approved by the Virginia Legislature, creating the George Mason University School of Law (now known as the Antonin Scalia Law School) upon the Arlington Campus (know known as Mason Square Campus). Today's Science and Technology Campus near Manassas, Virginia was established in 1997, and Mason Korea, located in the Incheon Global Campus, began operations in 2014. Enrollment at all campuses combined totaled over 40,000 in 2024.","Nearly all early official George Mason publications (from the late 1950s until 1972) were designed and printed by the University of Virginia at Charlottesville. They prominently displayed the University of Virginia seal (often on the front cover and title page). These publications included the George Mason College catalog (known as the \"Virginia Record\") and Schedule of Classes publications. Other publications that were more \"local\" in nature, such as telephone directories, George Mason College newsletters, reports, and publications prduced for Mason students, staff, faculty, and the public displayed the University of Virginia logos and language much less.

The original student body consisted of 17 young men and women from local high schools. The college was renamed \"George Mason College\" in late 1959 and moved to its first permanent campus at Fairfax during the fall of 1964. During this early period (1957-1964) enrollment never exceeded about 250 students. Once at Fairfax, George Mason College, while small, began to exhibit all the signs of campus life. The student body formed clubs, took part in intramural sports, published newspapers and yearbooks, and participated in many of the rites of college life. This included continuing the tradition of electing a slate of Student Government officers to represent the student body.","While there are no records pertaining to Student Government activities at George Mason University prior to 1966 in our holdings, Mason student newsletters and newspapers describe SG activities as early as 1960. That year there were a total of 10 members of the Student Assembly, 4 representatives for the Freshman Class, 2 for the Sophomore Class (George Mason College only offered 2 years of instruction at that time with the Associate degree as the terminal degree) and 4 officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer). Details regarding Student Government activities that were reported in student publications during this period and later can be found by exploring the following two electronic resources:","• Gunston Ledger and Broadside student newspaper collection https://images.gmu.edu/luna/servlet/GMU~40~40 \n• George Mason University and student publications https://images.gmu.edu/luna/servlet/GMU~44~44","Today Student Government is part of the university's leadership group, which includes The Executive Council, President's Council, Board of Visitors and the Faculty and Staff Senates.
