What is GSB

Our mission is to strengthen students' voices and enhance students' experiences at Iowa State University through active representation, engagement, and support.

GSB is the student organization which represents all students at Iowa State University.

To do this, we work with other student organizations, ISU administration, the Ames community, the state legislature, and the Board of Regents to accomplish initiatives, set policies, and make sure students have a voice.

GSB Structure

GSB is made up of 3 branches: executive, legislative, and judicial, just like the United States Government. Each branch is separate and performs its own specific duties, but yet also works with the other branches to make up GSB as a whole.

Roles of the Three Branches

The executive branch, which is made up of the President, Vice-President, and cabinet, works on specific projects and initiatives related to student interests. The legislative branch, which is made up of the senate, debates student issues and passes legislation regarding funding for student organizations. Finally, the judicial branch, which is made up of the 9-member Supreme Court, rules on issues between students and student organizations.
