Two Syracuse University students were named representatives to the Board of Trustees, the university announced on Friday.

Ghufran Salih, Student Association president-elect, and Emma Peca, a freshman political science and international relations double major, will serve as undergraduate student representatives to the board for the 2018-19 academic year, according to a SU news release.

Peca serves as the communications director for SU’s College Democrats, and she’s volunteered on political campaigns in Illinois, per the release.

Salih, a sophomore information management and technology major, will serve as SA president during the 2018-19 academic year.

Student Association elects two student representatives to the board every April, according to SA’s bylaws. One of those seats is filled by the SA president. Any undergraduate SU student can run for the other seat.



Jack Wilson, president of the Graduate Student Organization, will serve a second one-year term as the graduate student representative to the board, per the release. Wilson was reelected GSO president in April.

Joanna Masingila, dean of the School of Education, and Duncan Brown, a physics professor, will continue serving as dean representative and faculty representative, respectively. Both were elected in 2017 to two-year terms as representatives.
