The Sheridan Student Union is a student led organization and we are governed by a student elected Board of Directors. Students are voted in by their peers to represent their interests, needs, and ideas within the SSU. They make up our Board of Directors and help advocate for student life and change on campus.

Meet Your Board of Directors –Your Voice at the Decision-Making Table
Your SSU Board of Directors is here to represent you — and that starts with listening.

These conversations bring your lived experiences, challenges, and ideas to the governance table, helping shape the direction of the SSU.During office hours, Directors want to hear about the real barriers you’re facing in your student life—academic pressures, financial strain, gaps in support, or systemic challenges. Your input drives the SSU’s strategic priorities, budget decisions, advocacy efforts, and long-term planning.Governance begins with your voice. Stop by, share your perspective, and take an active role in shaping the direction of your Student Union.
