Bryleigh De Jong
Bryleigh is a graduate student at the University of Iowa studying Communications and Media Studies; she is originally from Pella, Iowa. Bryleigh joined CAB in fall of 2024 and has been a part of the organization for 2 semesters.
Bryleigh is an Event Director for the Campus Activities Board. Event Directors are in charge of working behind the scenes to create ideas for events and execute them through planning, organizing, and managing. Bryleigh took on this position because she, “loves planning events and CAB is the perfect organization for that.” She wanted to be more involved and help create events.
Of all the events CAB puts on during the year, Trivia Nights are Bryleigh’s favorite events as the themes change every time and she “loves to see everyone’s knowledge of varying subjects.” One of her favorite memories from being a part of CAB was, after Taste of Asia, bagging a tray of leftover rice and trying to auction it off to other cabbies.
