Representing Sessional Lecturers at the University of Saskatchewan

We are the University of Saskatchewan Sessional Lecturers’ Union. Through collective bargaining, we strive to provide our members with the fair wages and working conditions they deserve. Our members never stop working for their students, and we never stop advocating for our members’ rights. Fair representation for sessional lecturers improves quality of education for our students and strengthens our University community.

By-Elections

At our April 5th membership meeting

Parking Spaces for Spring/Summer Term, 2025 (May to August 2025)

Parking spaces for the 2025 Spring Term will go on sale beginning Monday, March 31, 2025.

13 spaces are available (11 in F Lot and 2 in V Lot). Locations of these lots can be viewed on the Campus Parking Lot Map.

Parking spaces are made available on a ‘first come, first served’ basis; spaces are not reserved until payment has been received. Please note that the available number of spaces is relatively small, and they tend to sell out quickly.
