Student Government Association of Eastern New Mexico University

ENMU's Student Government Association (SGA) provides students a voice in University governance and helps to enhance the overall student experience. Student government is comprised of three branches: the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch.

The executive branch is led by the student body president and is comprised of other executive officials and directors. The legislative branch is led by the student body vice president (president of student senate) and comprises the legislative cabinet and student senate. The judicial branch is led by the chief justice and comprises other justices and support staff.

Sirjustin Bowen
Student Body President

My name is Sirjustin Bowen, and I am honored to serve as the 2025 - 2026 Student Body President at Eastern New Mexico University. As a student pursuing a degree in Communication with minors in Graphic Design and Digital Filmmaking, I’ve always believed in the power of storytelling. I’m committed to using my voice to advocate for every Greyhound on our campus.

Born in Madison, Wisconsin, and raised in Kentucky, I bring a unique perspective shaped by diverse experiences and a deep passion for leadership, service, and student empowerment. My journey at ENMU has been defined by my desire to make a difference and ensure every student feels valued. Before becoming Student Body President, I worked in Residence Life and Campus Life in various student leadership roles, which gave me firsthand insight into the needs and dreams of our diverse student body. Through this involvement, I saw how vital it is to foster a sense of community and belonging at ENMU.

As President, I plan to lead our Student Government Association with a focus on transparency, inclusion, and meaningful change. Whether working with university leadership, planning campus-wide events, or addressing student concerns, I strive to be a leader who listens first and acts with purpose.

Outside of SGA, I’ve had the privilege of being named Mr. Black Excellence by the ENMU Black Student Union. This honor reflects my commitment to celebrating and advocating diversity on campus. I also proudly wear the official ENMU class ring—a personal reminder of growth, resilience, and the community that has shaped me.

Serving as Student Body President has been one of the greatest honors of my life, and I’m excited for what we can continue to achieve together. I strongly encourage and welcome all students at Eastern to come to me with any questions, comments, and/or concerns. I can be contacted at [email protected].

Aidan Kepfer
Student Body Vice President

My name is Aiden Kepfer, and I am truly honored to serve as the Vice President for Student Government at Eastern New Mexico University. My personal goal is to support and advocate for our student body in any way I can. I believe every student deserves to have their voice heard, and I am committed to being that voice throughout my term.

I was raised in Angel Fire and Alamogordo, New Mexico, as well as Reno, Nevada. Having lived in diverse communities across different states, I’ve gained valuable perspective and the ability to connect with people from all walks of life. These experiences have shaped the way I engage with others and have given me the tools to represent a wide range of student interests.

I’ve been a proud member of the ENMU community for the past four years. I recently earned my bachelor's degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in marketing this past spring and am now pursuing my Master of Business Administration. I am also currently serving as the new Graduate Assistant for Campus Life.

During my time at Eastern, I’ve been actively involved in Student Government and various student organizations. I was honored to receive the Coordinator of the Year award and lead the return of one of our most successful student events: the Haunted House. This event was named Best Program by a Student Organization. I’ve also had the privilege of being a student-athlete, which, along with my involvement on campus, has given me a deep appreciation for the many different student experiences at ENMU.

Serving as Vice President is a great honor, and I am genuinely excited for the term ahead. I look forward to working alongside our student body and making this year one of growth, connection, and positive change. If you ever have any questions, concerns, or ideas you'd like to share, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me, I’m here for you. I can be contacted at [email protected].
