Tariq Issa

Student Body President

Tariq Issa is a senior from Springfield, IL. Yes Springfield… not Chicago like every other Vandy student. He is majoring in Medicine Health and Society and minoring in Biology so if you find him not talking about VSG, chances are it’s another one of those conversations about being pre-med. This is his fourth year serving in VSG, and he is excited to advocate on students’ behalf as Student Body President, especially on issues of mental health and financial support. Around campus, he is heavily involved with the Middle Eastern Student Association, Alpha Epsilon Delta, and Project C.U.R.E. He frequents the best coffee shops in Nashville: Barista Parlor… and Local Java. If you ever had any questions about VSG or ideas about how to improve any aspect of the student experience, catch up with him any time you see him shamelessly fueling his caffeine addiction downstairs Rand.
