Wilfrid Laurier University Students' Union: Empowering Students to Achieve Their Goals
Wilfrid Laurier University Students' Union (WLUSU) is a non-profit organization that represents the interests of over 18,000 undergraduate students at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo and Brantford, Ontario. Founded in 1965, WLUSU has been committed to providing students with the resources and support they need to succeed academically, socially, and professionally.
At WLUSU, we believe that every student deserves access to high-quality education and opportunities for personal growth. That's why we offer a wide range of services and programs designed to help students achieve their goals both inside and outside the classroom. From academic support services like tutoring and study groups to social events like concerts and parties, WLUSU is dedicated to creating a vibrant campus community where all students can thrive.
One of our core values at WLUSU is inclusivity. We believe that every student should feel welcome on campus regardless of their background or identity. To this end, we have established several initiatives aimed at promoting diversity and equity on campus. For example, our Equity & Accessibility Services team provides support for students with disabilities or other accessibility needs. We also have an active LGBTQ+ community on campus through our Rainbow Centre.
Another key focus area for us at WLUSU is sustainability. We recognize the importance of protecting our planet for future generations, which is why we have implemented several green initiatives on campus such as composting programs and energy-efficient lighting systems.
In addition to these important values-driven initiatives, WLUSU also offers a variety of practical resources for students such as health insurance plans through Studentcare Networks Inc., legal advice through Student Legal Protection Program (SLPP), financial assistance through bursaries/scholarships/grants etc., career development opportunities via Career Centre etc.
Overall, Wilfrid Laurier University Students' Union is committed to empowering students to achieve their goals and make the most of their university experience. Whether you're looking for academic support, social events, or resources for personal growth, WLUSU has something for everyone.
