We are committed to increasing student engagement by highlighting FASS student associations and clubs through a new Instagram account (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fass_cusa\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fass_cusa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@fass_cusa<\/a>). Additionally, FASS programs without any existing associations or clubs, but who are interested in starting one, can reach out to us for help in getting a new group set up and registered with CUSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Inform<\/strong>: Using our Instagram account (<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fass_cusa\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fass_cusa\/\" target=\"_blank\">@fass_cusa<\/a>), we want to ensure that every FASS student is up-to-date on the current happenings within their program associations and clubs, as well as the latest news from CUSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Concerns<\/strong>: CUSA FASS Councillors aim to be available and hands-on to help with any issues that FASS students are experiencing. We have voting powers which can result in direct change ordered from the university, and want to use this privilege to serve and benefit FASS students in a positive way. <em>Note: FASS Councillors can only assist with concerns specifically related to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Students dealing with issues around other university services (i.e. health insurance, tuition, academic advising, ombudsman) will be redirected to relevant resources and campus offices.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"contact-info\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact Info<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Email: <a href=\"mailto:fass@cusaonline.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fass@cusaonline.ca<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instagram: <a data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fass_cusa\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fass_cusa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@fass_cusa<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What does a CUSA FASS Councillor do?
