Title: Class Representative
FSU Representative/Program Leader: Advocacy and Communications Coordinator
The Class Representative Program is made up of student volunteers who advocate for their peers and express their opinions, suggestions, and concerns in various aspects of the Fanshawe Student Union and College matters.
There is no limit to the number of Class Representatives from any program. Any full-time Fanshawe College student who wishes to become a Class Representative may register to be one.
Class Representatives will help the Fanshawe Student Union by collecting opinions and concerns from students, following up and acting on these concerns, as well as providing important information to students within their respective programs. Skills learned from being a Class Representative include, but are not limited to: giving and receiving feedback, advocacy, oral/written communication skills, presentation skills, problem-solving, conflict management, and leadership skills.
The minimum time commitment is one to two hours per month to attend meetings held by the Fanshawe Student Union, plus additional time to communicate with students (and professors) in their classes, courses, and/or program and completing monthly reports regarding these communications. Additional commitments include attendance at Fanshawe Student Union meetings (e.g., Orientation, Class Rep Meet & Greet) and Fanshawe Student Union and Fanshawe College events.
As a Class Representative, volunteering for 10 approved hours will grant eligibility for Fanshawe’s volunteer transcript, the Co-Curricular Record. Additional recognitions within the class representative program include “Class Rep of the Month” and ”Class Rep of the Year”, which are awarded on proven effort and engagement.
