Societies Committee
Societies Committee is a meeting that happens twice per academic year usually around November and May and is open to any student involved with a society, club or sports group at GSASA or any other interested students to attend.
Present at the meeting at a representative from each society or sports group, students that are elected to sit in the meeting to help develop societies and clubs, and also the elected Sabbatical Officers (President and Vice President) of the Students' Association, along with staff from the Students' Association including the Community and Societies Coordinator, Leilani, whose job it is to help support students to develop their groups and communities.
They are the decision-making group in relation to the activities and funds of the student groups and societies at GSASA.
They are a sociable group who bring people and projects together.
They are a space for societies and student groups to share about their recent and upcoming activity, collaborate together, and seek a supportive environment from other students, Sabbatical Officers, or GSASA staff.
They work to approve new societies, monitor and approve funding made to existing societies.
