The Faculty Senate holds the primary responsibilities relating to curriculum and research. University Committees, Advisory Groups/Councils, Task Forces, and Ad Hoc Committees comprised of faculty, staff, students, trustees, alumni, and other community members deal with the balance of school issues and needs.
