AUSU Advocates for YOU
Advocacy is one of the most vital roles of a students’ union, in order to ensure transparency and accountability on behalf of the institution and the government, and advocate for affordable, accessible, quality post-secondary education for AU students.
Individual Advocacy – Your academic concerns are important to us! Contact AUSU if you have concerns about AU services or procedures that you feel are detrimental to your student experience.
University Advocacy – AUSU advocates for AU students with the University, including holding seats on over 20 AU committees and the AU Board of Governors, while also regularly meeting with AU VP’s, Deans, and Directors to discuss issues important to AU undergraduates.
External Advocacy – AUSU advocates for all AU students at the provincial and national levels for topics such as increased educational funding, equitable student loans programs, and other student issues. AUSU is also a member of the Canadian Alliance of Student Associations (CASA) which helps AU students have a voice with the federal government.
