It is led by a team of elected and appointed students, headed by a President, with nine Vice Presidents, three Year Representatives and several Directors for special roles and projects.

Our Commitment

AÉÉIPPSSA acknowledges that the land on which we learn, live and study is the traditional and unceded territory of the Algonquin people and the Anishinabek nation.

AEEIPPSSA is committed to actively promoting the representation and inclusion of all identities including, but not limited to: women; lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, non-binary, gender non-conforming and queer students; students with disabilities; First Nations, Inuit and Métis students; international students; racial and ethnic minorities, Francophone students and others.

We pledge to ensure that our events are as inclusive, accessible, and sustainable as possible.

We will ensure that all marginalized students voices are heard and represented by making ourselves available to students through our office hours and emails.
