The Copper Mountain Community College District is governed by a five-member Board of Trustees elected by vote of the citizens of the District. A Student Trustee is elected by the student body and is the official representative of the students to the Board. At its monthly meetings, the Board oversees the educational programs, policies, and financial matters of the college.
