Adelaide University Union

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Adelaide University Union (AUU) was founded in 1895. The AUU funds seven affiliates which carry out their functions autonomously. They are the Adelaide University Postgraduate Students’ Association (AUPGSA), the Clubs Association (CA), the Overseas Students’ Association (OSA), the Roseworthy Agricultural Campus Student Union Council (RACSUC), the Adelaide University Sports Association (AUSA), the Students’ Association of the University of Adelaide (SAUA), and the Waite Institute Students’ Association (WISA).

The AUU has developed an extensive network of support services for Adelaide University Students. This includes counselling and academic support. The SAUA, one of the affiliates above, prints a weekly paper called On Dit, the second oldest student newspaper in Australia.

The current President is Alex Barratt from Student Unity.
