COMMITTEES
The Office of the Provost oversees a range of committees that play a vital role in shaping the academic mission, strategic priorities and operational excellence of the University. These committees bring together faculty, staff and administrators to collaborate on key initiatives, provide guidance on institutional policies and ensure shared governance across the academic enterprise.
Adjunct Faculty Committee
The Adjunct Faculty Committee provides adjunct faculty with a University-wide organization to address their concerns. The AFC has been created by adjunct faculty members as a way to provide support and information to all adjunct faculty at 蜜桃TV and to represent their interests to the administration. Adjunct faculty members who have questions or concerns should contact any member of the AFC. The Senior Vice Provost for Academics serves as the liaison to the Adjunct Faculty Committee.
