The Brock University Students' Administrative Council holds two equally important jobs. Obviously the in meeting component of BUSAC is vital to BUSU’s governmental structure. However, some of the most impacting changes come from the immense committee work the councillors and members take on. Through BUSAC committees are formed to take a more analytical and procedural approach to many of the services and areas that effect students every day lives. The committees range from overseeing the Universal Bus Pass and Health / Dental Plan. The Club Policy Committee ratifies, and approved club funding requests, the Finance Committee keeps BUSU’s fiscal stability in order, the Elections Committee work to administer BUSU’s and Brock Universities various elections, the Environment Committee ensures that BUSU is not only acting in the best interests of the Environment but that it is looking towards the future for alternative ways to improve our community.

These are just a sampling the 12 Standing Committees within BUSAC. Over and above these 12, each year various Ad-Hoc (Temporary) or Task Forces are struck to deal with pressing or priority issues.

Possibly the most important piece to these committees is the membership. BUSAC committees are one of the great opportunities students have a chance to work with their elected representatives. Within each committees membership there is a requirement for “Students-at-Large.” These S.A.L.’s are found within the student population and are place on the committees to offer input, new ideas, votes and greater student perspectives in the happenings of their Students’ Union government.

If you would like to have more information about the various committees or how you can get involved with either BUSAC or as a Student-at-Large please contact Lauren Peters BUSU’s Deputy Speaker at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
