At GSU’s recent biennial policy convention, delegates elected Jim Brown as President, Sheila Tran as 1st Vice President, and Brian Cowan as 2nd Vice President. Jim and Sheila were both re-elected to their positions, while Brian is stepping into the 2nd Vice President role for the first time, bringing with him a wealth of experience from other union roles.

As GSU’s chief elected representative, the President leads the union’s work on behalf of the Joint Executive Council—ensuring GSU fulfills its collective bargaining, representation, and constitutional responsibilities while maintaining a strong and viable organization. The 1st and 2nd Vice Presidents support this work and step in as needed to keep GSU functioning effectively and in line with its constitution and member priorities.

Together, Jim, Sheila, and Brian form GSU’s Executive Committee. Congratulations to all three, and thank you for your dedication to GSU and its members.
