Governance of the Academy

Each College (and NIE & LKC School of Medicine) has a representative on the Executive Committee, and the members and Chair serve two-year terms, and can be elected for an additional two-year term. The Associate Provosts for Undergraduate Education and Graduate Education are Ex-Officio members of Executive Committee.
