 Executive Board (2024-2025 Academic Year)

In October 2024, the Student Affairs Committee of the Graduate Council unanimously decided that the Graduate Student Association's Executive Board should mirror the Graduate Council by including representation from each of Morgan State University's 10 schools and colleges. The deans of each school were asked to nominate two students- one doctoral and one master's- to represent their school and serve on the Executive Board. The School of Graduate Studies also extended invitations to two students. Below are the Executive Board members, who will serve a six-month term from November 2024 to April 2025.
