New SGA President Aiming to Inspire Next Generation of Student Leaders

Krissy Sprankle

In a four-year span in the Student Government Association (SGA) that saw her rise from student senator to current president, senior Krissy Sprankle found a community of mentors that fueled her growth. Her term now underway, Sprankle has committed herself to providing the same support to the next generation of ESU student leaders.

Sprankle, a mathematics major with a concentration in finance and a minor in business management from York, Pa., said her time in SGA not only gave her something to work towards in addition to her academics, it also provided a sense of purpose.

“I was able to find my community in student government,” Sprankle said. “That’s what kept me engaged all these years because I got involved, I found my people, and I knew I was valued.”
