HSU Executive
Gurshan Sangha:
President & FASS Rep
Hi Folks! My name is Gurshan Sangha and I am the current President of the History Student Union! I am a second year history major here at SFU.
I am particularly interested in 20th century history, North American History, and the history of South Asians in the lower mainland. Outside of all that stuff i love being in the gym, hiking, bouldering, or just playing some video games. I’m hoping to revitalize the HSU and coming up with some fun and exciting events for you folks! Also this is my cat Atom :)
Hi, nice to meet you! My name is Ashlee and I'm currently the Vice President of the History student Union and the Secretary of the Humanities Student Union. I'm a second year double major in both History and Humanities, with a concentration in Mythologies. Learning about and visiting religious sites is super thrilling to me, so I'm also working towards a certificate in Religious Studies! In the future, I hope to find a career within law.
In my spare time, I like to try new restaurants, watch video essays/documentaries, as well as play video games. My skills are pretty lacking within the last one, but I guess I can't be good at everything, right? ;)

Hi, I'm Parneet Dhillon and I am the treasurer for the HSU. I'm a fourth year history major. I am interested in American, South Asian and Peruvian history.
I enjoy watching Gossip Girl and Desperate housewives and reading!
Mari Edwin:
Lower Division & Department Rep
Howdy! I’m Mari and I’m currently the Lower Division Representative. I’m a 1st – almost 2nd – year history major. (I’m also hoping to minor in French)
I’m interested in North American and 20th century history, but I’m trying to branch out more. I’ve found that the Early Modern Period is pretty cool!
During my free time, I draw, bake cookies, and when I’m with friends, go salsa and swing dancing! Truly a person of the arts :D
Really excited to be part of the union!
