Douglas Students' Union

The Douglas Students’ Union (DSU) is a student-run and student-funded non-profit that offers advocacy, services and activities on campus to support you during your time at Douglas College.  

The DSU advocates to make education affordable and accessible. Their services include an extended health and dental plan, locker rentals and an emergency food bank service. Campus activities range from clubs and events to volunteer opportunities.   

The DSU is a member of the BC Federation of Students and is governed by a 15-person Board of Directors elected annually from the Douglas College student body. The DSU operates on both the New Westminster and Coquitlam campuses but is a separate organization from the College.
