GOVERNANCE

General Council

The highest, regularly convening, governing body of the SUS is the General Council, commonly referred to as GC.

GC convenes every two weeks and is comprised of the entire SUS Executive committee, the three Science representatives to SSMU, the one Science Senator, and one representative from each of our 19 departments. Meetings are run by the Speaker of Council and follow Robert’s Rules of Order.

The General Council is responsible for adopting the Society’s By-Laws and departmental Constitutions, as well as approving Council generated questions for referenda and General Assemblies.

Anzhu Wei
Speaker of Council

Hi everyone! My name is Anzhu and I am your Speaker for the 2023-2024 school year. I am in my third year, double-majoring in Political Science and Urban Geography with a minor in Statistics. I hope you will all welcome this arts student with your science-loving hearts. The SUS does amazing work advocating for students, and I am thrilled to be part of this society. If you ever have any questions about General Councils, submitting motions, or how to transfer to the arts faculty, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
