Governance at The ASU


The Acadia Students’ Union (The ASU) is led by students, for students. Our governance structure ensures that decisions are transparent, accountable, and focused on improving the student experience at Acadia.

Here, you can explore how your student government works — from elections and leadership roles to policies, meeting agendas, and official documents.

Whether you want to run for office, attend a meeting, or simply understand how decisions are made, this is your starting point.

Your ASU. Your Voice. Your Impact

The ASU exists to represent, support, and advocate for you — but it works best when students stay informed and involved.

Elections matter. Governance matters. The decisions made by your student leaders shape funding priorities, campus initiatives, services in The SUB, advocacy efforts, and the overall student experience at Acadia. When students participate, vote, ask questions, and step forward to lead, our community becomes stronger and more representative of everyone.

If we don’t participate, it’s simply not the same.

Take time to learn what The ASU does. Get to know your student representatives. Read the agendas. Ask questions. Share ideas. Consider running in an election. Leadership isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about caring enough to show up and help shape what comes next.

Your elected representatives and The ASU staff are here to support you. We are students working for students, alongside a team committed to helping you succeed during your university journey. Whether you have an idea, a concern, or a goal you want to bring to life, we’re here to help you move it forward.

Be informed. Be engaged. Lead the way.

The ASU is strongest when you are part of it.
