Read about the skills and experience the president and vice president of USG bring to their positions and what they aim to accomplish this year.

Emily Manders: Leading the charge toward sustainability
The Iowa Memorial Union Main Ballroom was filled with students from other Big 10 universities. The legislation she'd written was on the table. But when Emily Manders presented a proclamation before student government representatives from across the nation, she wasn't nervous about whether it would pass. "I was more worried that this document would become just a piece of paper without any concrete action behind it," says Manders, a fourth-year environmental policy and planning major from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. "I'm very pleased to see that hasn't been the case."
