OUR MISSION
Founded in 2011, SASS aims to bring you a university experience that is catered towards your interests, and that will help you build connections within the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. We represent The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS), the largest and the most diverse faculty at SFU with over 12,000 undergraduate students.
​
​
SASS acts as your compass. Your hub for engagement and opportunity: Pointing you in the right direction of success.
What we do:
FACILITATING ENGAGEMENT
We provide a safe and inclusive platform for different FASS departments to share ideas and build a diverse community.
​
We create many opportunities for FASS students to develop friendships through events such as FASS Frenzy where students can meet and interact with one another, forming bonds that last throughout their time at SFU and beyond.
FACILITATING ADVOCACY
We represent and advocate for the diverse needs and interests of FASS students at various levels of SFU’s governance structure.
​
We act as a platform where Arts Students can bring their concerns and look for assistance in improving their FASS experience.
FACILITATING SUCCESS
We promote academic events like career exploration and development workshops where students can get to know FASS faculty and staff.
We also promote events and activities organized by departmental student unions to engage more students.
