► Governance

The University of London Union is run by students, for students.

There is an elected executive of two full time sabbatical officers.  Each officer is responsible for a key area of the union and is elected for a one year term by a cross-campus ballot.

The main decision making body of the union is ULU Senate, with representatives from all University of London colleges. All commercial services of ULU operate to fund the union activities, so a pint in the bar directly funds your representation, your sports teams and your societies.

 

ULU Senate

ULU Senate is the principle forum for debating and recommending strategy and for reporting on the activities and decisions of the Trustees and the organisation of the Union.  For further information see point 7 in ULU's Constitution.
