Meet Your 2026–2027 Board of Directors

Get to know your Board of Directors. Learn about the leaders who are building a stronger student experience.

Published: September 2, 2026

The Students’ Association Board of Directors brings together a group of student leaders who share one goal: building a campus community where every student feels heard, supported and connected.

Each board member brings their own story, strengths, and personality to the table, and together, they represent the diverse experiences that make our campus what it is.

Jacob Stewart (President)

Jacob is a straightforward, community-minded leader who believes every great campus starts with conversation. Whether he’s biking through the city, studying at the Corner Lounge or chatting with students at the ARC, he wants students to know that he’s always ready to listen and help out.
