University of Sydney Union (USU)

The Sydney University Union (for men) was established in 1874, and the Sydney University Women's Union in 1914. They amalgamated in 1972 to form the University of Sydney Union.

On 1 July 2006 Senate resolved:

1. There shall be the following societies which shall be governed by their respective constitutions subject to these resolutions: the Students' Representative Council, the University of Sydney Union, the Sydney University Postgraduate Representative Association, the Sydney University Sports Union*, the Sydney University Women's Sports Association, the Cumberland Student Guild and the Student Association of the Sydney College of the Arts.

(* Note: this is the wrong title, in 2003 the Sydney University Sports Union joined with the Sydney University Women's Sports Association to form Sydney University Sport).
