We are now located on the third floor of the Union in room 3225. Our Director's office hours are helD Tuesdays from 1 p.m.-5 p.m. and Fridays 11 a.m.-2 p.m., in the WSU Union space.

The Women Student Union is an identity-based group within Student Government whose overall mission is to unite women on the common purpose of individual self-growth. WSU places emphasis on addressing the issues collegiate women face and proving the forum in which they can be enlightened and empowered. It is our sincere hope that a spirit of camaraderie and a sense of strength and solidarity can be fostered month the women on our campus. 

As a representative voice, the Women Student Union prides itself on being an open and diverse group, available to every student on campus. We encourage you to get involved by following our instagram @wsu_fsu and coming to our events.
