🏫 Campus & Student Life
Student Union
A campus building serving as a hub for student activities, dining, events, and student government.
The student union serves dual purposes: as a physical building (the hub for dining, recreation, club spaces, and events) and as an organizational body (the elected student government representing student interests). Student union buildings often house food courts, bookstores, meeting rooms, entertainment facilities, and offices for student organizations. As a governance body, student unions advocate for student rights, manage activity fees, fund student organizations, and provide representation on university committees. The strength and autonomy of student unions varies significantly across countries and institutions.
