The Graduate Council should be composed of three graduate faculty members from each academic college to serve three-year terms. In addition, two graduate students who meet all graduate academic standards should be appointed to the committee. The Dean of Graduate Studies and all other academic deans should serve as ex-officio members of the committee. Nominations for membership will be solicited from the college deans and submitted to the Faculty Senate President.
Charge
The Graduate Council recommends policies pertaining to all aspects of the graduate program. These include admission requirements, graduate requirements, student assistantships and fellowships, degree programs, graduate faculty membership, etc. The Graduate Council also serves as the curriculum committee for all graduate courses.
