The Shepparton Student Association is an associate body of La Trobe University Student Union (LTSU). The SSA aim to represent the student body, both undergraduate and postgraduate and assist with having their opinions and interests voiced and heard, both on campus in meeting and forums, and off campus in the wider community. Students are represented by 3 office bearers (President, Vice President & Secretary), elected at the end of the year, ready to begin their term in the new year. The SSA/LTSU provides many services to students, both academic related; such as an independent advocacy service and a second hand bookshop, and services related to making La Trobe an exciting and fun place to be. The LTSU funds and administers:
• Clubs and Societies
• Rabelais
• Activities and Entertainment
• Student Advocacy
• 2nd Hand Bookshop
• The Age and News Limited newspaper subscriptions
• Free* breakfast through the Breakfast Club (*members only)
If students ever have any difficulties, the SSA/LTSU will always help out in any way that we can. All our office bearers are students from all across the university and are more than willing to utilise their resources to alleviate students’ problems, great or small, by referring you to the appropriate area of the University should any problems arise.
