The Elections Administration Committee (EAC) is an integral part of ASUW Elections, comprised of UW student volunteers and two hired co-chairs. Students who serve on the EAC help with the many functions of elections such as advertising, conducting election forums, setting up and running the information tables, and filing violations.
“The EAC is dedicated to conducting a fair and ethical elections process for the Associated Students of the University of Washington (ASUW). Throughout the ASUW elections process, the EAC develops a strong brand for ASUW and elections in order to promote voting and civic engagement on campus.”
– Reaa Dureja & Tammy Pham, EAC Co-Chairs
2025-2026 ASUW Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is made up of 9 elected and 3 hired students who govern the Association and represent students to UW administrators. Each Board member reports between several departments of ASUW, the University, and other student groups. In the past, the Board has helped fund hundreds of RSOs, influenced degree credit requirements, and worked to bring resources of all kinds to the Seattle campus!
