Union Council (UC) meets every two weeks and consists of all the Class Representatives (Reps) and members of the SU Executive Committee, although it is open to all students to attend.

Union Council and Class Reps play a key role in the work of MISU; through Union Council, Class Reps raise any issues which their class is experiencing, give feedback or put forward ideas. Class Reps can mandate the Exec to follow through on what happens at Council or take a certain stance on an issue to make sure they are working for the students.

Thurles Class Reps are required to meet with the Thurles College Officer on the Thurles Campus a week prior to Union Council meetings. These meetings are known as the Thurles Campus Class Rep Committee. This forum allows for Class Reps to bring forward any issues or concerns they are having on the Thurles campus as well as to bring forward ideas and provide feedback to MISU.

Union Council meetings will take place both in-person and via zoom with the link being emailed to Class Reps prior to the meeting. If you are not a Class Rep but would like to join the meeting, you can email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

How do I become a member of the Union Council?

In order to become a member of the Union Council then you need to be elected as your Class Rep. As the Students’ Union has around 4,500 students to represent across two campuses and the exec won’t get to talk to each person individually, class reps are elected, by their class through a vote, as the link between their class and the Exec.
