Your ECOS Executive Council is made up of five elected members and three non-elected members. Elected members participate in Executive Council votes; these positions are the President, the Executive Vice President, the VP of Academic Affairs, the VP of Financial Affairs, and the VP of Student Engagement. The non-elected members do not participate in votes, but still play important roles on Executive Council. These positions are the Parliamentarian, Chief of Staff, and Recording Secretary.

We listen to the student's side of an alleged violation and takes that into consideration while promoting a safe, respected on campus community. It's student run, so it's peers listening and considering the statements while determining if the student is or is not responsible for the alleged violation. We strive to be as fair as possible and carefully deliberate each case, so a student coming in for a meeting is always encouraged since it allows us to piece together the most accurate understanding of the alleged violation(s).
