Guild of Undergraduates University of Western Australia
The Guild of Undergraduates University of Western Australia, commonly known as the UWA Student Guild, is the official student representative body at the University of Western Australia. It serves as a voice for students, representing their interests and advocating for their rights at both the university and broader community levels[2].
History
The Guild was established in 1913 as an independent organisation, free from University influence, with official control to govern relations between the University and its student body[3]. Throughout its history, the Guild has maintained a strong partnership with the University, critiquing where necessary and offering support when needed. A notable example of this collaboration is from 1932, when students personally contributed to completing the Reflection Pond outside Winthrop Hall as a gesture of goodwill towards the University[3].
Role and Activities
The Guild plays a pivotal role in enhancing the student experience at UWA. It is responsible for providing a wide range of services and activities, including academic support, social events, and sporting programs. The Guild facilitates over 180 affiliated clubs and societies, which offer students opportunities to engage in their interests, develop leadership skills, and build friendships outside of academic classes[1][4].
Leadership and Structure
The Guild Council is the governing body of the organisation, consisting of democratically elected members who serve for a term of one year[4]. The leadership includes positions such as President, Vice-President, General Secretary, and Chair of Guild Council. For instance, as of December 2023, Indi Creed served as President, James Hodgman as Vice-President, Nikhita Talluri as General Secretary, and Jelena Kovacevic as Chair of Guild Council, all affiliated with the Spark political group[4].
Affiliations and Membership
The Guild is affiliated with the National Union of Students, which is the peak representative body for Australian tertiary students[4]. In 2021, the Guild had a membership rate of 96% among UWA students[4].
Governance and Legacy
The Guild continues to advocate for student interests while fostering a vibrant campus culture through events, clubs, and volunteering opportunities. It remains a critical component of university life, providing a framework for students to engage, grow, and influence university policies and initiatives[3][4].
