Coordinators
The BSA takes part of the Students' Union Jr Executive Program and would not be able to function as well without the huge input of its Jr Executives; Coordinators.
Four of the BSA's biggest portfolios: Academic, Marketing, Professional Events and Social Events benefit from the invaluable help of Coordinators, check out their teams below!
Academic Team

The Academic Coordinators are responsible for assisting with all that falls under our VP Academic’s portfolio. That includes meeting with professors to create Course Profiles, allowing for the variety of profiles currently available, writing up blog posts, and sitting on the Awards Committee to help adjudicate our BSA Awards. They work hard to coordinate events that will help develop students' academic skills!
Marketing Team

The Marketing Coordinators have had a major role as the BSA attempts to be more active and interactive on its social media accounts, with an emphasis on the BSA Instagram at @bsaucalgary. They run the BSA Monthly Meme initiated by our VP Marketing this 2021-2022 year, design graphics for our social media accounts so students are well aware of what the BSA has going on, and handle website maintenance!

They also participate in weekly meetings, help contact professors and obtain event supplies.
