Committee
A committee was a group of people who are appointed or elected to work together on a specific task or area of responsibility.
When Data first applied to Starfleet Academy in the first half of the 24th century, Bruce Maddox was, according to the android, "the sole member of the committee to oppose my entrance on the grounds that I was not a sentient being." He even referred to Data by the pronoun "it". (TNG: "The Measure Of A Man")
