Shared Governance

Governance bodies and committees work to take the institution to the next level. These dedicated groups serve a wide range of functions and are composed of members from the faculty, staff, and student communities. Whether they serve in long-term advisory roles or as short-term task forces, these groups are committed to driving positive change and continuous improvement.

University Council

The University Council serves as a forum for discussing and addressing issues related to the institution’s effectiveness and performance. The Council is composed of faculty, staff, students, administrators, and Board of Trustees members, and is responsible for reviewing and approving the university’s institutional effectiveness plan and progress reports.
