Residents' Council

Joining Residents’ Council is your chance to be the voice of your building! This is a great opportunity to get involved, meet people from your residence and develop leadership skills. Residents' Council positions are selected in September every year. 

What is Residents’ Council?

Residents' Council is an autonomous student body that serves the interests of students living in our residences. Each of our residences has a Council that helps support the community within. Through their work in advocacy, programming, and leadership and mentorship, Residents' Councils are essential pillars in our vibrant campus communities.

Event Access.

When living in residence, you'll have access to all the events organized by your Resident's council. Most programming is free and open to everyone in the building. For special events like Semi-Formal or Formal, tickets may need to be purchased by those interested in attending.

 

Residents' Council is a fantastic opportunity to positively impact your community. You can be the reason someone enjoys their first year in residence, or even university! You work with like-minded students just like you and it's a whole lot of fun. - Spencer C., Past Elgin Hall Council President
