Work of The Executive 

Each executive member has responsibility to act as the main representatives for a particular aspect of student life on campus. They must consult with and listen to students to be effective representatives. The president is the primary UL student representative within the university and nationally. 

The four full-time student officers and PSU president sit on over 40 university committees representing the interests of all students. This involves a lot of background reading and meeting preparation to contribute effectively. 

An exec oversight committee is elected from within the Student Council membership. The committee is made up of five council members whose role is to liaise with the Leadership and Representation office in reviewing executive officers’ performance and reports. Once all 5 members are elected, the committee will meet with the student representation coordinator who will explain the nature and intention of the committee.
