Organization

WASB is a student-led organization that relies on the dedication of four executive officers or 'execs' and five team directors to advance its mission on campus. Together, WASB's executives, president, vice president, secretary and business manager provide general leadership for the organization and, individually, possess responsibilities unique to their specific role.

Additionally, to best fulfill its mission, WASB is organized into four committees or teams. Each team has a distinct undertaking within the organization and is led by a student director. WASB's four teams are: Alumni Connections, All-Campus Party, Campus and Community Outreach and Development. Click below to learn more about each team!
