MEET THE CORE TEAM

What is the Core Team?

The Core Team of the Office of the President refers to the appointed ASUCI officers under our office that make everything possible – our Directors, Coordinators, and Aides! Under the direction of the President and the Head of Staff, these students lead their departments throughout the year to deliver on projects, initiatives, and events that support the undergraduate student body in a variety of different ways. For the 2025-2026 academic year, the OP Core Team consists of fourteen (14) dedicated student leaders (including the President and the Head of Staff) that lead the four (4) departments under our office, each passionate about the unique experiences they bring to the table and the topic area they’ve chosen to work in. Learn more about them and their respective departments below!
