1SUSS is a dynamically elected group of student voices that is autonomous from the University Administration mainly in terms of operations. This group consists of innovative and aspirational leaders who come together to voice out the community's needs and wants while aligning with different stakeholders.
Student leaders from various faculty student groups and non-faculty student groups volunteer to come together as student representatives to address the concerns of their fellow undergraduate members. The common goal is to champion initiatives for students by students through regular feedback sessions, fireside chats and focus group discussions. The community of student voices is spearheaded by the 1SUSS Executive Committee (1SUSS EXCO).
Mission statement: Listening and championing initiatives that foster the growth of a cohesive community
Vision statement: A unified community for a better SUSS
