HISTORY ON

REPEAT?

UNI BIZ 2020-2021

Seen from the eyes of past student body presidents, the University of Northern Iowa is both completely the same and totally different.

6

Four former student body presidents and graduates from the College of Business Administration shared the highlights and struggles of their terms across four decades, illuminating along the way the universal struggles of the college experience and the unique challenges brought on by current events. From coping with the fallout of Vietnam, to struggling through the Great Recession, to elevating student voices from underrepresented populations as the country reckons with systemic racism, these presidents brought their experiences and knowledge from their business curriculum to the table as they strove to improve both the UNI campus and student experience. And along the way, they gained insight into themselves that would last a lifetime.
