EMU Board of Directors
The Erb Memorial Union Board of Directors is responsible for making general policy decisions and long-range plans for the operation of the EMU. The board allocates the EMU's multi-million dollar budget, assigns space for student groups and advises staff in the management of the EMU.
The sixteen-member Board consists of twelve students (seven elected in a campus-wide election, four direct appointments from EMU Board, one by the ASUO Executive), three faculty members appointed by the University of Oregon President and one EMU staff member elected by their peers.
According to the EMU marketing directors, being a member of the EMU Board of Directors provides students with the opportunity to work intimately with UO faculty and staff on a diverse set of issues, such as policy-making, budgeting and program development.
The EMU Board leadership is composed of the Board Chair, Board Vice Chair, EMU Budget Committee Chair and EMU House Committee Chair.

Famous quotes containing the word board:
“This morning I threw up at a board meeting. I was sure the cat was out of the bag, but no one seemed to think anything about it; apparently it’s quite common for people to throw up at board meetings.”
—Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
