Council is an elected body of representatives that sets SSMU’s policies and enacts change on behalf of the entire undergraduate student population. Council (also known as “Students’ Council” or “Legislative Council”) constitutes the highest decision-making body and the legislative arm of the Students’ Society of McGill University governance structure – the board of directors. According to Article 3 of the SSMU Constitution, Council is the governing body of the Society and “shall be empowered to make all decisions and take all actions on behalf of the Society…”.
Council is where you can ask what your executives have been working on, hear reports on what clubs are getting funding and which new clubs are being approved, and see debate on motions that set SSMU policy. Visitors can also speak and give their opinion on what SSMU should do. It is a great way to get involved with SSMU politics and understand your student society better.
