Executive Board

CSSC Executive Board 2025

There are 6 executive board positions within the committee. Elections are held early in each fall semester.

Chair – responsible for scheduling meetings, coordinating with other e-board members, managing projects, and acting as the main point of contact between the group and external organizations.
Vice Chair – responsible for assisting the Chair, taking notes at meetings, and otherwise coordinating within the committee. By tradition, the Vice Chair takes over for the Chair when he/she graduates, and as such this position is usually filled by a third- or fourth-year student.
Treasurer – responsible for managing the finances of the committee and coordinating with the Chem admin team on project budgets.
Subcommittee Chairs (3) – these officers are responsible for organizing their subcommittees, overseeing projects chosen by their subgroups, and acting as the point of contact for members of their subgroups.
