Student Life Langara Students' Union
Formed in 1969, the Langara Students’ Union is an organization composed of all registered students at Langara College. Membership in the Union begins at registration upon the payment of membership fees. Membership ceases at the end of the semester following the student’s last semester of studies.
Function
On campus, the primary function of the Students’ Union is the protection and advocacy of the rights and interests of its members. The LSU Association functions through its Council, Advisors, and Board of Directors. These positions are held by students who are elected by the General Membership to one year terms of office.
Every Langara College full-time student is automatically a member of the Langara Students’ Union (LSU) and pays membership dues each semester. Each semester student elections are held for the LSU Executive Committee.

Operations
The Students’ Union operates as a co-operative, providing services to members. These include a health and dental plan, mental health resources, accounting services, an inexpensive photocopy service, a student discount program and more. Throughout the year, LSU committees organize a variety of events and resources for the Student body. Councillors and Advisors work closely with Committees to contribute to a dynamic campus experience by organizing on-campus events, workshops, & speakers. The Students’ Union building is located behind 'C' Building.
