Executive Branch

The Executive Branch is made up of an elected student body president and vice president, an appointed executive staff and elected college councils.

It collectively works to complete projects and initiatives for students to encourage wellness, engagement, academic success, sustainability and extracurricular involvement. The president and vice president also act as representatives for the student body on several committees and panels for the university and the state of Louisiana.

If you have any questions about the Executive Branch, how to get involved, or you are a student in need of assistance, please email sg@lsu.edu.
