This recognition fund provides a small gift of appreciation to students serving as SBA President at Dallas International University. Established by Dr. Tiffin and his wife, MarySue, it reflects a lifelong commitment to developing and honoring student leaders who strengthen the DIU community.

The SBA President plays an important role in campus life helping shape student culture, building community, and serving as a bridge between students and administration. This leadership is not only about organizing activities, but about fostering connection and setting the tone for campus life.

As Dr. Tiffin notes, SBA Presidents lead not just through events, but through their influence on the spirit and direction of the student body, serving out of a genuine love for their peers and for the DIU community.

Former SBA Presidents consistently describe the role as formative, an opportunity to grow in leadership, humility, and service while helping build traditions and relationships that last beyond their time at DIU.
