Board Structure
The KSA board is made up of four positions: freshman representatives, programming officers, senior advisors, and the executive board. There are approximately 20 members on the board, although the exact number varies from year to year.
- Freshman Representative: As the title suggests, "freshman reps" are comprised of approximately seven to eight freshman who assist programming officers and the executive board in both planning and running events. They are recruited in the fall of each school year.
- Programming Officer: Made up of sophomores and juniors, programming officers are responsible for leading various subcommittees and play an important role in organizing major KSA events.
- Senior Adviser: Senior advisors are experienced members of KSA who become mentors and guides for the board members.
- Executive Board: The executive board is a five member team that oversees both the board and the general body. They are responsible for the logistical, functional, and financial aspects of the club and provides essential leadership for the rest of the board. The EBoard positions are: President, Vice President External, Vice President Internal, Treasurer, and Secretary.
