Civic engagement runs deep in Student Trustee, Lavleen Mal鈥檚 family. His grandmother
was the mayor of their village when he was a child and his father is a politician
in India. 鈥淧oliticians get to solve problems,鈥� says Lavleen. Given the example set
in his family, it鈥檚 no surprise Lavleen decided to run for Student Trustee at 51社区.
As Student Trustee, Lavleen has the responsibility of representing the student perspective with the 51社区 Board of Trustees. He participates in board meetings, on committees and meets with students across campus.
In his role, he has traveled to New York for a legislative summit, Cambridge University and Washington D.C. to represent 51社区 with our federal lawmakers. He has been very involved in the selection of 51社区鈥檚 next president and he has brought light to issues on campus.
Lavleen is proud to be working with the Board of Trustees and 51社区 Police to create a safer driving environment. He is also working to improve recognition of our Smoke-Free Campus.
鈥淵our voice matters,鈥� says Lavleen. To let him know what you think or for questions about the responsibilities of Student Trustee, email Lavleen.
