La Familia

On behalf of the Hispanic/Latinx Student Union, we would like to welcome you to our Familia. We would love for you to be a part of this incredible group we have created here on this campus. We are one of the six SGA agencies in FSU, which means we are here to represent the Hispanic/Latinx community both on this campus and in Tallahassee. We are very excited to share our culture and heritage with you all. We the Hispanic/Latinx Student Union pride ourselves on being an open and diverse group, who try to implement inclusivity in everything we do. We encourage you to get involved and find out what we have to offer!
