Good afternoon,

 

Please see below and review all attached documents if you are interested in joining a Senate Committee.

 

This year, there are a number of changes to the Senate Committee structure. Starting June 1, 2026, a revised structure will be introduced to approve changes to undergraduate admission requirements and regulations, courses and curricula, and academic regulations and policies.

 

The Senate Committee on Admissions, Senate Committee on Curriculum and Course Changes, and the Senate Committee on Instruction and Evaluation will be disbanded in conjunction with the implementation of the new Committees on June 1, 2026.

 

Senate Committee Interest Forms must be returned by Tuesday, February 17, 2026.
