Meeting dates
Any matriculated student can attend the beginning of a Councils meeting, and may speak to Councils during the open forum section, whether to raise issues they feel Councils should be addressing, or to give opinions on a motion.
The meetings this Academic Year will take place at 6pm in the Large Rehearsal Room, in the top floor of the Student's Association Building, on the following dates:
- 20th September 2022
- 11th October 2022
- 15th November 2022
- 24th January 2023
- 14th February 2023
- 14th March 2023
- 4th April 2023
Submit a motion
If there's an issue you think the Students' Association should address, support, or denounce, you can submit a motion. If approved, motions can force the Association to take action, sending a clear message that students are united on a particular topic.
Any matriculated student may add a motion to an agenda:
- Write your motion. See the how-to, and past examples in the documents section below.
- Collect signatures and matriculation numbers from 25 students. Full names are not necessary, and you count as one of the 25.
- Send your motion and list of signatures/matriculation numbers to the Association Chair ( [email protected]). They will let you know when your motion is due to be discussed in a meeting.
- Attend the meeting. You can introduce your motion, and engage in the debate. If this sounds scary, any of our current officers may be willing to introduce the motion on your behalf.
