Governance

How the AUS is structured and how decisions are made.

The AUS is a democratically elected student association representing all Arts and Arts & Science undergraduates. Its governance is rooted in a constitution and equity-focused bylaws that define the roles of the Executive, Council, committees, and affiliated associations.

Council meetings, general assemblies, and referenda give members a direct voice in shaping priorities, approving budgets, and holding representatives accountable.
