FSUB offers ways for students to enjoy, get engaged at GSU

Favrot Student Union Board is an organization many students get involved in on the campus of Grambling State University. 

Each semester the organization plans events for each semester for the campus and staff to give the community a stress reliever outside of class. 

Vice President Renard Woodard, a Baton Rouge native, has a lot to say about the FSUB. 

Woodard joined FSUB back in the fall of 2018 and was a general member for two years. 

Last semester Renard was promoted to vice president and is making his way up to run for president in the future. 

“I joined FSUB because I was always active in highschool, but I wanted to join SGA (Student Government Association) but found out about FSUB,” Woodard said. 

Woodard said he enjoys being a member of FSUB moreso than SGA. 

“FSUB was less stressful than SGA, but you still get the same benefits as SGA.” 

Woodard said since he has been a member, FSUB’s best event was Spring Fest 2019. 

“It was live and turnt, and I most definitely lost sleep that week, but I don't regret any of it,” Woodard said.  

The presidents, vice presidents, managers, committee chairs and co-chairs at FSUB make sure everything runs smoothly and has no problems. 

All FSUB events are posted on either Instagram or Twitter. 

FSUB’s president of FSUB is Courtan Williams. 

Williams is very energetic and is extremely passionate about FSUB. 

“FSUB is a family and welcomes everyone that would think about joining FSUB,” Williams said. 

Williams said FSUB is mainly about caring for the students and making sure everyone at Grambling State feels at home. 

FSUB is very passionate in making students succeed while they’re in college and after college. We feel if every student was to join, their whole college experience would move so much smoother. 

“Embrace and express your personality through FSUB, and be a part of the family,” Woodard said. 

Woodard said the FSUB program is about bringing the student body together and embracing campus. 

“Making sure the students feel safe and at home is one of our biggest goals, as new students move onto campus,” Williams said. 

FSUB also offers interested students an opportunity to get more involved around the community on campus. 

If you're a student and feel you want to get more involved at Grambling University University, you can become a member of FSUB. 

Woodard said serving for the campus and organization is something any student should want to be a part of. 

“We look forward to seeing more phenomenal events occur on campus as we get ready for the fall of Grambling State University. Grambling State University, “Where everybody is somebody,” Woodard said.
