	In 1944 the Cabinet consisted of the heads of the student organizations with an office on the fourth floor of [[John Jay Hall]], then the hub of student activities on campus. Its members in 1944 were Jester, Review, Spectator, Columbian, Band, Chess Team, Debate Council, Glee Club, Orchestra, Columbia University Radio Club, and Rifle Team. By 1950, the chess team had been replaced by the Columbia University Players.

This came on the heels of the administration censoring the [[Columbia Review]]. The Cabinet's member activities included any activity receiving funding from the [[King's Crown (group)\|King's Crown Advisory Committee]], plus Spectator.

	In later years the Cabinet was based in [[Ferris Booth Hall]] and operated as an umbrella organization for certain student groups. It eventually gained oversight over [[Pamphratria]], the [[Undergraduate Dormitory Council]], class representatives, and student groups both located in and out of Ferris Booth Hall. By contrast, the [[Columbia College Committee on Student Organizations]] oversaw groups located in [[Ferris Booth Hall]] and affiliated under the administrative umbrella of King's Crown Activities.
