The Commerce Undergraduate Society of the University of British Columbia, Vancouver (commonly abbreviated to the Commerce Undergraduate Society and the CUS) is the faculty student society for undergraduates enrolled in the Bachelor of Commerce program at the Sauder School of Business of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. The society is noted for being the largest business school society in Canada, both in terms of its $1.3 million annual operating budget and its over 700 students who hold positions in the society. The mission statement of the CUS is "To enhance the value of the UBC Sauder School of Business' Bachelor of Commerce degree while cultivating the personal, professional and academic success of students." The CUS annually holds some five major conferences for its students and external delegates and offers dozens of services to its students. The society also founded the Hari B. Varshney Business Career Centre for Sauder and is currently collecting fees in order to pay for the renovated Sauder facilities.
