Laurentian Students' Union

Laurentian Students' Union The LSU is a democratically elected, non-profit, service orientated union, independent of both Laurentian University and Georgian College administration

The LSU is the official body representing the full and part-time Laurentian students studying in Barrie. As a student run organization existing independently from both Laurentian University and the Georgian College administrations, the role of the LSU is to act as the voice of the Laurentian student body, representing the interests of its members to all levels of government and university and coll

ege administration. As a member local of the Canadian Federation of Students, the LSU is committed to fighting for necessary academic, administrative, and legislative changes to improve the quality of education provided to its members. The LSU is firmly devoted to enhancing your university experience by fostering an active student culture on campus. Throughout the year the Union coordinates and hosts regular events and activities which are open to all students. Popular examples include the annual trip to Ottawa for Model Parliament, TurkeyBowl, the Laurentian free-skate and hockey game, social justice seminars and campaigns, coffee houses, pub nights, and many more. The LSU advocates for a variety of political causes, such as promoting an inclusive campus culture and organizing students in the struggle against rising tuition fees. As students our political strength is in our numbers. We are always looking for new voices to help the LSU continue the struggle for social justice. Involvement in student politics and your students’ union is a great way to make the most of your university experience. If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to hang out and chat, drop by the students’ union office in room E112A. Or, you can email the LSU at [email protected], or reach us by phone at (705) 728-1968, ext. 1981.

Hey! Let's give it a big push and get us over the 1,000 letter mark. S-h-a-r-e- this with everyone you know and let's get back to class! THIS is the type of pressure that works to get LU back to the bargaining table!
