The Programming Board (PB) is a group of student leaders recruited at the beginning of each Fall semester. Comprised of seven committees (called prides), and one ad hoc, that are led by the Executive Board, their job is to help plan and execute all of Blue & White Society's events and projects throughout the year.
Each committee has a very different role, and has its own purpose in completing Blue & White Society's mission.
