The Assembly Building houses the Glasgow School of Art Student Association's administrative offices. Known by many of the staff and students as "The Vic" due to the remains of a Victorian cafe, called The Victoria cafe, saved from beneath a condemned building in the 1960s.

Students from other institutions often refer to the building as "The Art School", which often refers to the gigs and club-nights that run by the GSASA.

The GSASA also has different societies including the Mural society, LGBT society and Cinema Society.

The SRC is a body of students elected by fellow students. They meet once a month with different sections of the school to discuss issues affecting the students.
