McMaster Social Sciences Society
Established in 1988, the McMaster Social Sciences Society, commonly called MSSS ("The M-Triple-S"), is composed of undergraduate Social Sciences students enrolled in 3 or more two-term courses in an academic session. The Society represents its members on committees, is a point of contact with the campus-wide McMaster Students Uniom, organizes social and academic events, and provides funding support to student clubs relating to academic departments in the Faculty of Social Sciences.
Events organized by the Society include an annual formal, and participation in both McMaster's frosh week (titled "Welcome Week") and the McMaster Students Union Olympics. While all executives have a say in the workings and events of the MSSS, there is an executive member elected to specialize in one field of the Society's operations. Elections for these positions occur yearly and are open only to students in the Faculty of Social Sciences. The Society's office is located in the Commons Building.

For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modelled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“Remove advertising, disable a person or firm from preconising [proclaiming] its wares and their merits, and the whole of society and of the economy is transformed. The enemies of advertising are the enemies of freedom.”
—J. Enoch Powell (b. 1912)
