Senate Committees
The Senate has responsibility for 1) maintaining its standing committees and forming ad hoc committees as needed, 2) appointing members to those non-Senate committees requiring Senate representation, and 3) forwarding nominations of faculty to selected non-Senate committees with elected faculty representation. It is the responsibility of the Senate Secretary to maintain and update as necessary a list of all these committees.
