The Student Executive
The Executive Committee is a team of elected students who work full-time to oversee the Union on a day-to-day basis. They help and represent LUU’s members. The Executive liaises regularly with Roger Gair, the University Secretary.
Executive officers operate in two capacities:
- As a representative of University of Leeds students, campaigning for change on their behalf.
- A trustee of LUU, taking holistic accountability for the well being of the organisation, which is accompanied by significant legal responsibility.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or executive:
“When our kids are young, many of us rush out to buy a cute little baby book to record the meaningful events of our young child’s life...But I’ve often thought there should be a second book, one with room to record the moral milestones of our child’s lives. There might be space to record dates she first shared or showed compassion or befriended a new student or thought of sending Grandma a get-well card or told the truth despite its cost.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“To me the sole hope of human salvation lies in teaching Man to regard himself as an experiment in the realization of God, to regard his hands as God’s hand, his brain as God’s brain, his purpose as God’s purpose. He must regard God as a helpless Longing, which longed him into existence by its desperate need for an executive organ.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
