► Student Services Committee

The activities and events sides of the Association are run by the Student Services Committee (SSC), which comprises the physical facilities and organisation that puts on events, and supports societies in all that they do.

Some of the societies that you are automatically a member of (Debates, Charities, Mermaids (the Performing Arts Fund), the Music Fund (MusFund), Postgraduate Society (if you are a postgraduate) and the Entertainments Crew (Ents) who deal with the set-up and running of Association events, comprise the SSC. Also part of the SSC is the Societies Committee. The SSC is also the body that students come to in order to help put on their own events. All four of the sabbatical officers are automatic members of the SSC.

Come on, get involved and make a difference for the students of St Andrews.
