SRC, USYD - Students' Representative Council, University of Sydney

SRC, USYD - Students' Representative Council, University of Sydney The SRC is the peak representative body for undergraduate students at Sydney University. The SRC has a long history of fighting for student power.

We stand for a free, fair and funded education, universal student unionism and a society free of discrimination and oppression. Our collectives are the hub of student activism on campus. Our staff provide vital services such as SRC HELP (free academic, Centrelink and tenancy advice & support) and our FREE legal service. We also publish Honi Soit, the oldest weekly student newspaper in the country.

We know it’s the semester break… but hopefully that means you can spare 5 minutes to do this important survey about student experiences for the SRC to use in its submission to the NSW Parliament Inquiry into the Human Rights Act 2025! Let’s get student rights legislated in this state 💪🏼

Some of our SRC reps have been getting involved with the Save Waterloo encampment, and you should too as exams wrap-up! Here’s the basic information you need about what is happening, why it impacts students (just do a quick Google of privatised student accomodation…), and how to help ➡️

The SRC has long stood against the privatisation of public land and homes. The Council passed a motion in April 2025 titled “Save Waterloo! Oppose Labor’s evictions, sell-offs and demolition of Waterloo South. Housing should be for people not profit!” and has a similar, updated motion coming back for our next 2026 Council meeting. 🏡💪🏼🫶

Good luck to all for your end of Semester 1, 2026! This is my last Honi Soit report for a few months, but there will be lots of updates on our Instagram and in the fortnightly newsletter I started. Here are a few recent updates to provide:

– I’m trying a new form of our monthly Council recaps to provide information and transparency to those who don’t venture to filter through the minutes on our website (fair)

– Following the University, SUPRA and SRC announced that after this week the Laneway $5 lunches will be closed but will be replaced by a new $5 meal canteen in J03 from semester 2

– I’ve been working on organising a coalition to counter-protest an anti-abortion bill on 2 June 2026. Check out the Instagram for more details and make sure to get organised against people trying to repeal our rights!

– Our SRC office continues to suffer in the Wentworth basement with a crumbling roof and leaking water 🥀 I hopefully will be back in my next report with some good news

– Following on from my W12 report, the proposal to remove StuVac from intensive units has not been approved in the Academic Standards and Policy Committee following intervention from myself, SUPRA, and a few staff members regarding the lack of consultation of students and the Disability Inclusion Action Plan. I’ll keep you posted

Check out some cool SRC events this Friday evening – at 4pm there is a film screening of ‘5 broken cameras’ by ACAR, SFP, FilmSoc, and ArabSoc (location TBC), before a 6pm Enviro Collective event ‘last drag on earth’ (Hermann’s Bar) featuring drag kings and environmental justice

Over the break, make sure to follow and sign up to our newsletter via the SRC website to stay up to date.

In solidarity,
Grace
