The Students’ Union of VCC was formed in 1974 to become the representative body of 13,000 students at Vancouver Community College. As a part of caring about the well- being of its membership, the SUVCC is connected to the heart of campus life, providing students with access to recreation, events, and opportunities to contribute to the community. A member of the Canadian Federation of Students, and an advocate for students rights, the SUVCC has successfully lobbied for, and implemented a standardized and fair-priced Universal Transit Pass for all Metro Vancouver students. The SUVCC also provides its students with a tailored, high- quality health and dental plan that meets the needs of its diverse constituency.
