David Bruen, a Rockland native and rising Junior studying Political Science and Policy Studies at Syracuse University, was elected the President of the Body representing over 16,000 undergraduates at Syracuse University and SUNY-ESF.

David will serve as President for the 65th Session and will also serve as a student representative on the Board of Trustees.

Being an Eagle Scout and student leader, David was compelled to serve his fellow students with the goals of reimagining the student government and working for what students want and need.

This is a critical time for the Syracuse University student body as two famous alumni, President Biden and incoming Governor Kathy Hochul, are now at the forefront of politics and government.

As President, David plans to work on financial accessibility and local environmental issues.
