Standing committees are groups that assist in the machinations of EUS, be it for funding, sustainability, first-year outreach, and so on. They exist as a '''supportive role''', working to fulfill the EUS operating mandates.

==== Service Committees====

Service committees is a term for groups that ''explicitly provide services.'' It could be argued that event planning committees provide a service, that [[Plumbers' Student Design]] is a service, but by the strictest of definitions they are not categorized as such. ~~There's a going trend of service~~ committees ~~fulfilling a demand irrespective of season: e.g. printing needs from CopiEUS will always~~ be in demand by the ~~average student~~.

Service committees is a term for groups that ''explicitly provide services.'' While it may seem redundant, yes, technically all of the EUS services are considered 'Service Committees'. The definition of a service is tricky; it could be argued that event planning committees provide a service, that [[Plumbers' Student Design]] is a service, but by the strictest of definitions they are not categorized as such. Service committees today tend to be in demand year-round by the students, exchange currency for the service, and have paid [[employees]].

==== Select Committees====

Select committees, also commonly referred to as ''ad hoc committees'' are created to aid the EUS executives research issues of interest. They '''''are not''''' selection committees, see below. Select committees exist for the duration of the time needed for research; the findings are then reported to [[Council|EUS Council]] alongside a recommendation. There is not a poignant example in recent memory.
