Interhall Council Information

Interhall Council (IHC) is the Residence Hall Association for the University of Guelph founded in 1969. IHC is the voice and spirit of residence life at the University of Guelph. Since our founding, we have enriched the experience of residence students by running events, advocating for the needs of our students, and providing our students with meaningful leadership opportunities. With 53 members representing approximately 5,000 residence students, we are the largest Residence Student Government in Ontario. Starting with Orientation Week, IHC provides engaging involvement opportunities all year long. As future residence students, some events you can anticipate include: our residence-wide dance during O-week (The Pep-Rally Boogie). Our 50+ members help ensure that your voices are heard and your interests are advocated for by regularly collecting your input on various issues being discussed on campus and sharing that input with the University administration and, Student Housing Services. We also understand that many of our new students are looking to develop their leadership abilities in preparation for future careers, and we offer opportunities through participation as Floor Reps, executive positions on each Hall Council, and through multiple on-campus, regional, and international leadership conferences.
