Four masked councillors at the Students' Council WOW Table.

This is your leadership

This is your Students’ Council.

Students’ Council

Students' Council is the ultimate authority in the Students' Union. It consists of up to 28 members:

  • The Speaker (non-voting)
  • The President of the Students' Union
  • The four Vice-Presidents
  • The Undergraduate Board of Governors Representative
  • 19 Faculty Councillors (distributed on a representation by population principle)
  • The General Manager (non-voting)
  • The Chief Returning Officer (non-voting)

Together, these individuals are responsible for fulfilling the mandate of the Students' Union. This mandate comes from the Post Secondary Learning Act

Students' Councillors represent their faculty at Council meetings and are expected to adhere to the Students' Council Oath. Councillors consult with their constituents and collaborate with fellow Councillors to act as an advocate for students. Councillors are expected to show interest in the many committees of Council and be actively attending meetings.

Students’ Council Meetings

Meetings vary in length (depending on how much business there is that week) and are open to the public except when Council moves in-camera to discuss sensitive business. Students' Council meetings typically occur in Council Chambers (located next to Van Vliet). If you cannot attend in person, you can also observe Council virtually.

Students' Council welcomes input from the public during meetings, but please be aware that all meetings of the Council observe Robert's Rules of Order and, therefore, speaking turns may only occur during certain sections of a meeting.
