Get Involved!
This page contains all the information TMSU Members need to stay informed and involved in their students’ union. All full-time undergraduates, including Lincoln Alexander School of Law and School of Medicine students, are members of the TMSU. The TMSU operates by following our By-Laws and Policies, which are decided by the Board of Directors and students at general meetings.

General Membership Meetings
The TMSU holds two general (or membership) meetings each year – one near the end of the Fall semester and one near the end of Winter semester. These meetings are a time where the TMSU Executives and Staff can update students on the work of the union and get feedback from you. Students can also bring “motions” to these meetings, which ask or require the TMSU to take action on a certain issue. These meetings can be intimidating if you haven’t been to one before, so we are here to support if you want to get involved.
Elections
Every Winter term, elections are held to elect the Executives Committee and Board of Directors for the following academic year. Executive positions are full-time jobs overseeing portfolios in the TMSU, while Directors support and conduct oversight. Everyone is encouraged to run in the elections, and make sure you cast an informed vote!
