Eboard: Vice President

The vice president is one of the elected members of the executive board (i.e. “eboard”). The vice president is directly responsible for helping the president carry out their responsibilities and help manage the overall club. Usually, the president and vice president maintain a close relationship where responsibilities often swap between the two.
