libertywealthonline.com

A former standout athlete at Southern Illinois University Carbondale has been appointed to serve on the system's Board of Trustees.

Joel Sambursky would fill the final vacancy on the SIU Board of Trustees, and his nomination must be confirmed by the Illinois Senate. 

Sambursky is the President of Liberty Wealth Management in Carbondale, and is well known for his years as the quarterback of the SIUC football team. His leadership from 2002-2005 helped guide the Salukis to post-season play and trips to the NCAA FBS Championship.

Sambursky has served as the Executive Director of the Carbondale Chamber of Commerce, and holds two degrees from SIU.

The SIU Board of Trustees next meets in Edwardsville on September 12.

Jennifer Fuller joined Capitol News Illinois in July 2023 as the organization’s broadcast director. She will oversee the launch and operations of CNI’s new broadcast division.
