YouX, officially the Adelaide University Union (AUU), is a student union at the University of Adelaide in South Australia. It provides academic advocacy, welfare and counselling services to students free of charge, funds the student newspaper On Dit, and owns a number of commercial operations on campus. It also oversees the Student Representative Council (SRC), an organisationally separate body responsible for student political representation.
It was founded in 1895 and since 1971 is recognised as a statutory corporation under the legislation governing the University of Adelaide. As of 2024, there are over 175 clubs and societies under the umbrella of the union.[1]
In September 2024, YouX and the University of South Australia Student Association announced their intention to merge.[2]
