Student representation is a long standing tradition at Queen's University. The residence student government is responsible for maintaining a positive living environment for all of its residents through a variety of programs. As a student living in residence at Queen's University, you automatically become a member of the Residence Society. Members of the society benefit from all of the services and opportunities provided to them, as well as representation of their interests to other University bodies. ResSoc has over 4000 members which include all the residence buildings on Main and West campus: Adelaide and Ban Righ, Chown, Gordon and Brockington, Leggett, Leonard, McNeill, Morris, Victoria, Waldron, Watts, Jean Royce, Harkness and Graduate. The Residence Society (ResSoc) is governed by the The Residence Council. The Council is formed primarily with elected student representatives such the House Presidents and most of the Executive members and functions as the administrative head of the Society, performing all management duties, enforcing the policies of the Society, and maintaining an extensive list of services. In addition to the elected representatives, the Council hires a number front line staff such as Residence Facilitators in order to further the objectives of the society. Currently, the Council has 47 full and part-time employees.
