The Council of Rectors of Chilean Universities (CRUCH) is chaired by the Minister of Education, who participates in some meetings in that capacity. Some of the CRUCH chair's powers are delegated to the Executive Vice-Chair, a position democratically elected by the Council members, as is the Alternate Executive Vice-Chair. Both positions have a two-year term with the possibility of reelection.
