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.

—Zick Rubin (20th century)
“Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing culture in our land.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
“I reside at Table Mountain, and my name is Truthful James;
I am not up to small deceit, or any sinful games;
And I’ll tell in simple language what I know about the row
That broke up our society upon the Stanislow.
But first I would remark, that it is not a proper plan
For any scientific man to whale his fellow-man,”
—Bret Harte (1836–1902)
