The dean meets with this council twice a month, on the first and third Tuesdays, and more often as required. A summary of action items is kept for each meeting and is distributed to all department heads, center/institute directors, and directors of all interdisciplinary programs.
The college’s associate and assistant deans are ex officio members of this council. Additional members of the dean’s executive staff will attend meetings as appropriate.
