Submitting a proposal

We believe that students have the right to provide input and feedback on the OTSU's strategic direction, raise concerns about the services the OTSU offers, and address matters that they believe the OTSU should advocate on.

Students can submit a proposal to the board regarding governance and policy changes, advocacy issues, or service amendments.

Submissions for proposals are now closed.

Appointing a proxy

If you cannot attend the meeting but would still like to participate in any votes, you may appoint a proxy to attend and vote on your behalf. A student can only appoint one proxy to attend/vote on their behalf. Proxy holders must attend in person for voting.

The deadline to submit a proxy form is January 25, 2026 by 11:59 p.m.
