Meet Sophia Fabiano, Your Next Students' Union President

Results are in! Sophia Fabiano is your next Students’ Union President! Sophia is from Ottawa, Ontario, and is in the BSc Biology program with a minor in Studio Art. Ms. Fabiano lived in MSB for two years and was even house president at one point. She loves Taylor Swift Night at the Inn and O-week. Sophia has been involved at the Students’ Union since her first year at StFX. She started on the House Council and was then the House President. Since, she has worked as the VP of Residence Affairs. In addition, Sophia was on the STFX cheerleading team for two years, has worked for intramurals, and has been a member of the volleyball society and Antigonish Outdoor Rec.

Sophia's platform pillars include student experience, campus safety, and advocacy. She says she is “committed to inclusivity and equity through all of these pillars.” She would like to create more inclusive Students’ Union events, make some of our current programming even better, increase advocacy surrounding Sexual Violence Prevention, and she would like to create opportunities for the Union to be engaged in conversation surrounding Sexual Violence Prevention on our campus.  Additionally, she wants to advocate for better student housing conditions off campus and increased funding for OERs (Open Educational Resources) at StFX to create a more affordable and accessible post-secondary experience for students.

The results were announced Friday evening at the Inn, and cheers could be heard throughout the building as Sophia’s win was announced.
