GOVERNANCE
BOARD OF STEWARDS
COMMITTEES AND CLUBS
The principal advisory and oversight
body at Hart House is the Board
of Stewards, and the majority of its
voting members are students. They
include representatives from each of
the student-led Hart House Standing
Committees as well as one from each
of the five student unions across the
University’s three campuses.
These students are joined on the
Board by senior members of Hart
House and U of T faculty and
staff. Working together within the
framework set by the Hart House
Constitution, the Board of Stewards
helps to ensure the House is pursuing
and achieving its priorities, approves
and monitors the annual budget and
offers advice to the Hart House staff
throughout the year.
Through its Standing Committee
structure, Hart House provides
leadership opportunities for students
and other members of Hart House,
and encourages the exploration of
ideas, perspectives and issues of
importance to not only the House but
to society at large.

House include:
• Art
