Students Society of Â鶹AV (SSMU)
Undergraduate studentsÌýhave services provided to them specifically by their student society, the (SSMU). In addition to services, the Students’ Society of Â鶹AV recently approved a new SSMU Family Care . This policy calls for specific services for undergraduate students with dependants, such as childcare at all SSMU events, as well as advocacy and general support.
The SSMU Building (a.k.a. the William Shatner Building) is breastfeedingÌýfriendly. The student lounge on the ground floor has many couches and other seating arrangements that may be comfortable for children.
Additionally, some student groups, such as the Union for Gender Empowerment, have offered their offices as private breastfeeding zones for students who prefer privacy. You can go to the Union for Gender Empowerment Office in room 413 of the SSMU building to breastfeed at any time. You can contact the Family Resources Coordinator or the UGE for the code to the door. We will be installing a mini refrigerator soon for parents who might be pumping.Ìý
