Executive Board

Executive Board

The AASG Executive Board is entirely made up of students from all over Alaska. Officers are either elected or selected by interview. Many positions are eagerly contested at the Fall Conference. Each Board implements programs. The 2007-08 Executive Board adopted the RSVP program and has had training in several schools as well as at the last two conferences. Each Exec Board identifies a theme for the year. Rural-Urban Communication has been successful in supporting rural students with travel scholarships and in developing the AKStudent Network. The current theme of “Youth Strength through Involvement” connects with the U.S. presidential elections and service.

Friendships

Friendships

AASG and NASC offer many opportunities to make friends and learn from each other. AASG has set up the AKStudentNetwork, has the Beamer Wall at conferences, and builds in lots of time to get to know students from all over Alaska. These two delegates had a great time sharing at NASC.
