About the Board of Directors
Who Makes up the BOD?
The BOD is elected in the winter semester and their term starts in May and finishes in May of the following year. The Board provides ongoing ownership linkage with the student body, sets organizational policy in accordance with ownership needs, and provides oversight of operational compliance with policy. Within the Board there is a President and Vice-President; these positions are the chief and deputy-chief representatives and advocates for the student body and are the leader of the Board.
Saitsa's Bylaws are the governing rules by which the organization operates.
