The College consists of the corporate body of the Master and Fellows. The College is governed according to a set of statutes, whether imposed by a founder, such as William Bateman or John Caius as was the case until the nineteenth century, or by Statutory Commissioners, as has been the case thereafter. Since the sixteenth century, executive decision-making has been undertaken by the Senior Fellows, and since the nineteenth century by the College Council, consisting of the Master and twelve Fellows. Since the early twentieth century, the majority of the Fellowship have also met corporately once a term in the General Meeting.
The records of the Council and of the General Meeting are produced by the Registrary and authenticated by the Master or 'custos'. Dr Caius in his sixteenth century statutes established the office of Registrary, a College officer drawn from among the fellowship, whose duties were to keep the records of college meetings, to write the admission register (a function since passed on to the Senior Tutor and Tutorial Office) and generally to act as the secretary of the College in important matters.
(A list of the holders of the office of Registrary was compiled by Catherine Hall, and published in The Caian, 1990).
The Law Club was founded in 1919 for all members of Gonville and Caius College who were interested in the study of Law. It comprised of a Chairman, Honorary Secretary and an Executive Committee who organised debates and the presentation of papers for the Club.
