Hello, Eagles! I wanted to introduce myself to the new students on campus. My name is Emma Garretson and I was voted Student Trustee for the 2024-2025 academic year. I am a sophomore from Peru. I am on the volleyball team and I am a sophomore representative in the Student Government Association.

I am honored and very excited to serve the students of IVCC this year. I am open to any advice or recommendations you may have.

You can contact me by email at [email protected], or you can find me in the Student Government Association office which is located in the Student Life Space.

For anyone that is interested in joining SGA, petitions will be available starting Sept. 16 outside Cory Tomasson’s office. Freshman elections will be held on Sept. 26 and 27 in the Student Life Space.

I also wanted to inform everyone that Spirit Day is Wednesday, September 11th from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the IVCC Courtyard.

Spirit Day is an annual event that has taken place over the past 30 years. This event has proven to be a successful way to recruit student organization members, highlight events and departments on campus, and provide a wide variety of interactive activities for students and staff. I hope to see you all there!
