The Board of Directors is the governing board for the University-Student Union, consisting of 8 student directors and 11 faculty/staff/administrator/alumni members who help shape policy, structure and are responsible for all financial & legal responsibilities of running a non-profit organization. Directors are expected to serve on the board for one academic year (Fall-Spring).
The University-Student Union, or U-SU for short, is a great one-stop location for students eager to learn about what's happening on campus, collect student discounts or get involved. It is the headquarters for the Alumni Center, student government (Associated Students Incorporated) and campus organizations and clubs.

Why it matters: students rely on us. Showing up daily and consistently means doing what we say we will, every time.
We act with honesty and consistency, especially when no one is watching. Our word and our work line up.
Why it matters: trust is earned in small, daily decisions and it is the foundation of everything else.
