The
student association representing all
full-time undergraduate students at
Trent University in
Peterborough Ontario. Local 71 of the
CFS. This organization has been in place since the
TSU was dissolved due to
some indiscretions
This organization's first mandate is to represent students' voices both within Trent University and within the
Post Secondary Education System of Ontario and
Canada. Its other mandate is to arrange the
Health Plan as well as
Dental coverage for its members.
The Board is made up of 29 members ranging from
Aboriginal Commissioner to
Queer Issues Commissioner. The board also includes three members from each of the Residential
colleges: the College
Cabinet President, the Senior
Senator, and the College Commissioner. The
Executive is made up of the President and four vice-presidents, who's portfolios are respectively: External Affairs, Fianance/Corperate Secretary, Membership Services, and University Affairs.
Elections are held in late
March as well as mid-
September in order to allow for the
first year positions to be filled.
In 2001-2002 the dues were 21.50 (
Can. $) per student. They are currently indexed to inflation, so one would expect them to be relatively stable short of a member wide
referendum to change them in either direction.
