President's Cabinet
The President’s Cabinet was formed by the 2008-2009 Student Body President (Jared Itkowitz) and Student Body Vice President (Pooja Godbole). It has been formally added as a bylaw to the Constitution of the Student Body of Carnegie Mellon.
The purpose of this cabinet, in short, is to enable the Student Body Executives to get more of their goals accomplished in their one year term. Any activities-fee paying undergraduate or graduate student who is not a member of the Student Senate or the Graduate Student Assembly is eligible to apply to serve on the President’s Cabinet. Beyond weekly meetings, the President’s Cabinet will assist the Student Body President and Vice-President in an effort to enhance the Carnegie Mellon student experience through policy revision and creation, campus events, and community discussions.
