McMaster Street Team
OUSA spent its first two weeks of October traveling across Ontario visiting each of its 7 member campuses. Every campus had a presentation to its council/assembly/board which governs its student government. Many schools had information booths and meetings with university presidents/principals and campus media. Every campus also had the opportunity to participate in a focus group regarding financial aid, allowing OUSA to conduct primary research of its members. Additionally, a big effort was made at McMaster and Windsor where town-halls on post-secondary education, OSAP, and university issues were hosted. Much appreciation to all the committee members, campus coordinators and volunteers who made these two weeks of traveling across Ontario a successful venture.
