REC advocacy positions
For over a hundred years students have organized to effectively serve and represent the needs of their student community.
There were student leaders when Mount Royal was a high school, when it was a college, and to this day where it stands as an undergraduate university. With such a long history, it is important that students are aware of the positions that their student leaders are advocating on their behalf. As such, the REC developed a document outlining position statements to help inform MRU students of the work they undertake on their behalf.
