Founded on the principle that every social and economic issue is linked.
Students for a Democratic Society is a coalition of activists, organizers, and aspiring revolutionaries. We work tirelessly to connect housing, climate change, tuition costs, foreign policy, racism, capitalism, and conflicts thousands of miles away into a single interconnected system of oppression.
Our members devote countless hours to writing statements, attending meetings, planning protests, and creating Instagram graphics that will be viewed by nearly dozens of people.
Through direct action, indirect action, symbolic action and performative action we strive to challenge systems of power and oppression.
Together, we are building a better future, one protest at a time.
A complete moral framework, requiring no further reading.
"Meaningful change begins with awareness, continues with awareness, and culminates in awareness."— Mr. S.D. Ess (Founder of SDS)
Our members develop valuable real-world skills including arguing with strangers, reposting infographics, interrupting speakers, and blaming capitalism for the consequences of their own decisions.
While traditional students waste their time pursuing marketable skills, internships, and professional development, SDS members gain something far more valuable: the power of the struggle.
Our graduates leave campus equipped with the tools necessary to spend the next twenty years complaining about the system while relying on it for absolutely everything.
Distinguished post-graduate placements, self-reported.
"Employers consistently recognize the unique talents our members bring to the workforce, including an inability to arrive on time, a refusal to follow instructions, and extensive experience explaining why every workplace expectation is actually a form of oppression."
Our members have developed a precise, scientific scale for evaluating anyone who has more money than they do.
