Standing Committees

The Artist Series Committee is charged with the responsibility of administering the Artist Series, a cultural enrichment program for the University supported primarily through student fees. Administering the series includes selection of artists, marketing events, producing events, education and outreach to the community, as well as managerial duties related to contracts, bills, mailings, and grant writing. Due to the nature of programming, this committee may vote to extend the Chair's appointment. The term of this committee is from August to August.
