Do you know what $122 of your tuition for the TMSU is being used for? Well, you’re not alone, jump into our latest episode of the OTR News Podcast to find out.

This episode was hosted by Grace Draznin & Belle O’Neill, and produced by Celina Chugani & Joëlle Staropoli. The theme music for this episode is by Almost Barely and is called “Letting Go.” We interviewed previous St. Michael’s College Director David D’Aversa and UTSU Presidential Candidate Jake Barton this week, and the streeters were provided by the rest of the newsroom at OTR. At TMU, our student union is called the Toronto Metropolitan Student Union, or better known as the TMSU. You may have seen them on campus running events or even during your orientation. But did you know that they are also responsible for your health and dental plan? Or that an additional $122 of your tuition per year goes to funding their programs? So what does the TMSU really do… well you’ll have to listen to find out.
