Haitian Student Union (HSU)The Haitian Student Union will focus on providing students on campus a safe space to learn more about Haitian culture. Through exposing the rich history, food, music, activities, and all of what Haiti has to offer. The foundation of the Haitian Student Union will be built upon providing more space for students to experience diversity on campus. We believe that many students are looking forward to an environment on campus that provides an appreciation to the country of Haiti and we plan to provide such space.Follow @wsuhaitianstudentunion on Instagram
