Committee Bylaws
This committee makes general plans for University-sponsored assemblies, programs and public occasions such as Open House Days, Homecoming, and Commencement. It recommends policy for faculty and student programs, guest speakers and ad hoc events. It also supervises the academic calendar.
The committee consists of six (6) faculty members elected by the Faculty Senate from a list of department nominees, one administrator appointed by the Chancellor, three (3) students selected by the Student Council, and one (1) student selected by the Council of Graduate Students.
The Commencement subcommittee of the POC is charged with planning and overseeing the implementation of plans for Commencement ceremonies and other events related to Commencement. This subcommittee is appointed with the authority of the Faculty Senate, given that its activities require assistance from individuals outside the POC. The subcommittee will report to the POC, and not directly to Faculty Senate. An annual report of activities of the Commencement subcommittee will be included in the annual report submitted by the POC.
Two (2) members elected from and by the POC are to serve on the Commencement subcommittee. As is the norm for events within the jurisdiction of the POC, changes deemed significant, as determined by the two subcommittee members, to the form or function of the Commencement ceremonies are subject to approval by Faculty Senate.
