GOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS - As the cost of getting an education continues to rise, one of the most important actions we can take is working alongside the state government to tell student stories and help them understand why the University of Iowa should be allocated more state funding than what we are now. These conversations will be a top priority in running our administration and in forming our Governmental Relations team.
ACADEMIC AFFAIRS - Supporting academic success is a top priority for our team. We want to work to increase academic support, work with the honors program, and promote academic resources. Academics is one of the main reasons why we’re all here at college and making sure everyone has the opportunity to be a successful student is our focus.
