The objective of this study was to identify the various types of student councils based on their areas of interest. The study population included 100 school principals or deputy principals, in junior high schools or high schools, who filled in questionnaires to map student councils. The analysis yielded 89 student-council profiles, with two variables--community volunteering and student rights--forming the basis for the other variables, and thus for the four types derived: integrative, voluntary, rights, and dim. The 'Discussion' section describes an attempt to understand the uniqueness of these two variables and their interrelations.
