- Faculty: A class of scholars and intellectuals who contribute to policymaking, education, and research. Their expertise is highly valued in decision-making processes.
- Citizens: The general populace, who are afforded certain rights and privileges but do not participate directly in governance unless they achieve a high level of intellectual or academic distinction.
