This branch is overseen by the SA Executive Board (E-Board). Starting next term with the Spring 2025 Elections, the E-Board will consist of the President, Vice President for Advocacy, Vice President for Clubs, Vice President for Events, and Treasurer.

The President is the official representative of SA both inside and outside the University community. They review, update, and set SA's long-term strategic goals and plans, oversee the SA staff as they accomplish their tasks, and assist in the approval of budgetary spending. They also communicate with UB faculty and departments as necessary. They are a culmination of all the behind-the-scenes work that SA does to provide for and support the undergraduates.

The Vice President for Advocacy coordinates the student staff in SA's Student Affairs Department, including holding regular meetings. They act as an advocate for the undergraduate students in the areas of studnt rights and student welfare, and serve as a channel of communication between SA and the University administration.

The Vice President for Clubs coordinates the student staff in the Club Services Department, including holding regular meetings. They assist SA recognized clubs in the performance of their operations, advise students who are interested in establishing a new SA club, and ensure all SA recognized clubs are aware of the resources and services available to them. They are also responsible for sanctioning clubs which violate any applicable law or policy. SA and its representatives are strictly prohibited from considering the viewpoint(s) held and/or expressed by any club, its officers, or its members when SA makes determinations about clubs, including but not limited to matters such as recognition and derecognition. Decisions about clubs must be made according to SA's viewpoint neutral policies; all policies that pertain to clubs are available on SA's website.

The Vice President for Events oversees SA events, activities, and programming. This includes coordinating the student staff in the Entertainment and Programming departments, and holding regular meetings. They conduct research, seek student input, and gather feedback on potential events and activities (excluding club events and activities). They also oversee the planning of SA's event schedule and recommend improvements for existing non-club activities.

The Treasurer coordinates with the student staff in the Finance Department, including having regular meetings. They oversee all financial transactions and monitor the budget. They are responsible for taking all reasonable steps to ensure that SA funds are not mishandled and that all SA assets are safeguarded and accounted for according to the Internal Revenue Code, SUNY policies and all applicable laws and regulations. They are also responsible for communicating with the Treasurers of all SA clubs to assist them with fiscal, accounting, and/or disbursing policies and procedures as needed.

We encourage any student interested in holding a position to review the SA By-Laws and reach out with any questions.

This branch contains the SA Senate, which is responsible for the allocation of the SA budget and approves budgetary changes through out the year. The Senate is comprised of 23 members. 11 Senators are members by virtue of their offices within SA (3 E-Board members, 7 council coordinators, and the Student Affairs director). The remaining 12 Senators are elected by the undergraduate students at the beginning of the fall semester. The Senate also enacts resolutions concerning issues of importance to the undergraduate student body in regards to issues of academic policy, student rights, and student welfare. The Senate may also create ad hoc positions, agencies, task forces, and committees to take action on any of the aforementioned items.
