Senate and the Regent House of the University of Cambridge
The Senate consists of all holders of master's or higher degrees. It elects the Chancellor and the High Commissioner, and elected two members of the House of Commons until the Cambridge University constituency was abolished in 1950. Before 1926, it was the governing body of the University, the fulfillment of the functions that the Regent House fulfills today. The Regent House is the University's governing body, a direct democracy comprising all resident senior members of the University and the schools, along with the Chancellor, the High Commissioner, Deputy High Commissioner and the Commissioner. The public representatives of the Regent House are the two Proctors, elected for a period of one year, on a proposal from the Colleges.
