Behind each good student body president and vice president lies a great chief of staff. This person, unknown to most, is the glue of the staff who works behind the scenes to make sure that the office is run­ ning smoothly. “ I am a stunt double for Brooke and Brian. If they have a couple of meetings conflicting, they will send me,” said Jonathan Jorissen, current chief of staff under student body president and vice president, Brooke Norton and Brian Moscona. “My job is to orga­ nize and run the divisions of the office in an efficient and effective matter, that is essentially what I do.” Norton and Moscona appointed Jorissen last spring following their election. When a ticket is elected to office, voters are not electing two people to lead the student government but three, the third being selected by the president and vice president elect. The chief of staff is the third extension of the student body executive and the next in charge behind the vice president. In many ways, this person is accountable to students because the Senate must confirm the appointment. This individual is an integral person in the Office of the Student Body President. This individual acts as an intermediary between staff members and the presi­ dent and vice president. In many ways the president, vice president and chief of staff work as a team, sup­ porting and communicating with each other. The chief of staff has the responsibility of running the office and ensuring that the different divisions within the office are kept on task and accomplishing the administration's platform goals. He attends executive cabinet, Campus Life Council, Student Senate and staff meetings.
