I believe that having a student member on the IRB is an OPRR
requirement. We just added one to our IRB here at APSU this
past year. As we have graduate programs, the student
representative is a graduate student (and, yes, she does give
very insightful and useful information to the group), but I
would think that an advanced undergraduate would do well, too.

Subject: Quick question - Students on Ethics Committees
Hello all,
I'm teaching an end of summer short-term research methods in social
psychology course right now and I have a quick question. I assigned a set
of readings for today's class that show a back and forth ethics discussion
between Savin and Zimbardo about the prison experiment. At the end of
Zimbardo's response, he suggests that students be put on ethics committees
in the future. I am unaware of this practice (although I've got a call in
to check this out at U.C.). I want to know how many of your institutions
have students on their ethics committees. Please reply, even if they don't
have them. If you reply directly to me, I'll summarize the findings later
this week.
Thanks,
Don
