Admission Policy Advisory Campus-wide Committee

The Admission Policy Advisory Committee serves at the pleasure of the Provost. The committee is composed of eight faculty members from various schools, four students, and three ex-officio administrators who meet two or three times a year. Its function is to oversee the College's admission policies and procedures. As such, it works very closely with the Office of Admission, the Associate Provost for Enrollment and the Office of Financial Aid. An Admission Athletic Review subcommittee of five persons (three faculty and two administrators) also meets six or seven times a year for the purpose of evaluating the admission of athletes requiring further action outside of the regular admission process.

Equal Opportunity and Sexual Harrassment Campus-wide Committee

The EO/SH Committee plays an active role in advancing the goals of equal access and diversity throughout the campus community.  The Committee has been at the forefront of efforts to create a hospitable climate for all of the College's diverse constituents.  In addition, the Committee provides guidance to the Office of Equal Opportunity, which oversees faculty and administrative hiring and manages the College's compliance with federal and state equal opportunity laws.  The Committee meets monthly during both the academic year and summer.  Members undertake significant initiatives outside the context of meetings to advance the College's equal opportunity mission.
