Your new FSU Coordinators are Claudia Herrera - Finance Coordinator, Sarah Machado Acuna - Advocacy & Communications Coordinator, and Basia Boron - Student Life Coordinator.

The Fanshawe Student Union (FSU) has announced the appointment of three new executive positions for the 2023-2024 school year.

Your new FSU Coordinators are Claudia Herrera - Finance Coordinator, Sarah Machado Acuna — Advocacy & Communications Coordinator, and Basia Boron - Student Life Coordinator.

Coordinators work closely with the FSU president, building relationships with students across Fanshawe’s campus, helping to organize events and awareness weeks, and acting as a point of contact for student concerns.


Unlike the president, FSU Coordinators are hired positions, involving an application and interview process.

Acuna and Boron both have previous experience with the FSU, Acuna as a Red Squad volunteer and Class Representative and Boron as a member of the FSU’s Entertainment Team.

“As a team worker, I love to work with people and really trust in communication’s power, which is why I first applied for this FSU position,” Acuna, a student in the business human resources program said. “I am looking forward to assisting students with any concerns and/ or issues they may encounter during their student path and also helping them to achieve success.”

Boron, who is currently studying broadcast - television and film production, said she is looking forward to blending her knowledge as a student with her experience as a member of the FSU.

“It’s exciting blending that all together and getting the students’ voices heard and putting that into action,” Boron said.

Herrera meanwhile is a business fundamentals student, who has some experience with the FSU as a student.

“I have participated in some events as a student,” Herrera said. “The events are a great opportunity to have new friends, learn about different cultures, and get engaged with FSU.”

Herrera said she is excited to serve students and enjoy new challenges in her role as Finance Coordinator.

“I am so grateful for this wonderful opportunity to be part of this team,” she said.

The new team of executives, along with the new FSU president, directors, and governor, will officially take up their positions on May 1.
