For Students, By Students, With Students.

Together we advocate and build support for students and their interests. Work with students to ensure they can meet their personal needs and achieve their professional/educational aspirations. And are led by students—who are democratically elected or appointed, empowered to lead, and committed to demonstrating exemplary public governance. It’s not just a slogan. It’s who we are and how we work. And it’ s a Membership You Can Be Proud Of!
