The Lethbridge College Students' Association (LCSA) is a not-for-profit organization representing interests of students studying at Lethbridge College.
The LCSA represents student affairs, including advocacy, committee representation, student services, recreation and events.
Authority[edit]
The LCSA is an organization independent of Lethbridge College, established in 1957 by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, of Alberta. It reports to the provincial government rather than Lethbridge College administration.
The LCSA receives authority to conduct business through the Post-Secondary Learning Act of Alberta(PSLA).[1] The Act establishes all student associations in Alberta as a corporation, whose members are the students of the public post-secondary institution.
The PSLA allows student associations to administer student affairs, promote general student welfare, create governing documents, acquire property, and maintain the organization through the levy of mandatory fees.
Governance[edit]
A student council manages LCSA business and affairs, and they are elected annually from the college's student body. Any student who is a member in good standing of the LCSA may submit themselves as candidates for office. Students' Council is composed of three student executive members (President, Vice-president financial, Vice-president student life) and six student representatives. Elected representatives take office for one year, with terms running from 1 May to 30 April.
Representation[edit]
Provincially, the Lethbridge College Students' Association are a member of the Alberta Students' Executive Council.
