If you’re an incoming freshman here at Fairfield University and are looking to get involved, you’re at the right place! FUSA (Fairfield University Student Association) offers several ways to get your feet wet here at school, even as a first year student.

Were you part of student government in high school and are looking to continue it through college? Being a FUSA 2016 Senator could be just the right thing for you! As a senator, you will serve as a voice for your fellow classmates and take on initiatives to help make Fairfield a better place for everyone.

Did you enjoy putting on class and school events over the past few years, or is this something that could interest you? In that case, we encourage you to look into SWAT! Students Working All Together (SWAT) is a board within FUSA that provides excellent opportunities for anyone looking to get involved. You will be working with a FUSA mentor who will help guide you who will help you develop various leadership skills while also allowing you to work on things that might not get the chance to do otherwise.

We will also be looking for 2016 Class Programmers to be part of our Programming Board! As a Class Programmer, you will get to pick out your class apparel for this year, as well as program a few events to bring your class together and have some fun.

We strongly recommend you come find FUSA at the Activities Fair on Friday September 7th to come talk with us and learn more! If for some reason you can’t make it, and would like to contact us, here is how:

For Senate, contact: samuel.maxfield@student.fairfield.edu

For SWAT, contact: mark.evans@student.fairfield.edu

For Class Programming, contact: julianne.mcgrath@student.fairfield.edu

We can’t wait to have you all on campus!
