ABOUT
The method of governance of an institution is important in determining its success. ASMSA was established by the State of Arkansas to educate gifted and talented mathematics, science, and arts students, and develop curricula to improve instruction in such disciplines. These goals can best be served through the corporate efforts of students, faculty, staff and administrators.

The General Assembly's membership consists of the Director (ex officio), Full-time faculty, Full-time staff, Dean of Academic Affairs, Dean of Residential Affairs, Director of Outreach, Director of Admissions, Fiscal and Facilities Manager, President and Vice President of the Student Government Association, and the Junior and Senior Class Presidents and Vice Presidents.

The General Assembly is responsible for developing education policies and programs in such areas as: admissions requirements, curriculum, calendar and schedules, academic honors, and student affairs. Recommendations from the General Assembly concerning educational policies and programs will be forwarded to the Governing Council and Director. The General Assembly shall serve in an advisory capacity to the Director and shall have the authority to make recommendations on matters of general faculty or campus-wide concern.
