TEXT. STUDENTS' LIFE IN BRITAIN.
British Universities and colleges have Students' Unions which are concerned1 with students' life and studies. Unions have their Presidents, their role is basically to represent- the interests of the students. Almost all power rests in the hands2 of the whole membership as expressed at General Meetings. For practical purposes the decision-making3 is delegated to Union Council.
Each Union Council has sub-committees each of which has the job of overseeing4 a small area of the Union's work. For example, the Union Council of the University of Leeds has the Cultural Affairs Committee, Executive Committee, Freshers5 Committee, General Athletics Committee, House Committee. Overseas6 Committee, Women's Affairs Committee, etc. They help to settle various students' problems in the academic year — with grants, accomodation, rents. They are also responsible for the coordination and organization of extra-curricular activities. If at any time a student needs advice, members of the Union Council will be glad to be of assistance. All these committees are open — any student may take part in the elections to them.
There are numerous societies working within university and college Unions covering a wide range of interests and activities. The abovementioned7 Leeds University Union has 150 Societies of the following categories: political, religious, national, cultural, recreational; among them
Agricultural Society, Archaeology, Arts, Ballet, Biological, C.N.D8 , Chinese, Christian Unity, Computer, Film, Green, Law, Music, Vegetarian, Yoga, etc.
