The President of the Union (PU) is the chief executive official of the Rensselaer Union, and the presiding officer of the Executive Board. It is the second-highest elected position at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute behind the Grand Marshal (GM), and is elected annually during GM Week alongside the GM and other elected Union officials. Unlike the Grand Marshal, whose interests are primarily in advocacy for RPI students, the PU primarily oversees the Union's facilities, business operations, and relations with the many clubs under its jurisdiction.
