Our History
Founded in 1927, with its name initially originating from the scrambled acronym"Auckland University College Men's Common Room Committee." 98 years on, what began as a platform for a singular voice has transformed into a vibrant tapestry of diverse perspectives.
We honour our history while embracing a future that reflects the multifaceted experiences of our student community. Join us as we continue to amplify voices that challenge, inspire, and shape the narrative of our campus.
