About GSE&IS' Faculty Executive Committee

The Faculty Executive Committee (FEC) is the elected representative body of the Faculty of Graduate School of Education and Information Studies. It functions as an arm of the Academic Senate and per its by-laws, provides general oversight of the welfare of the students, faculty, and staff of the School; advises the Dean on academic policies, long‑range planning, budget considerations, and allocation of Faculty positions with the School; and reviews and responds to proposed University policies.

Members of the FEC are elected from and by the Academic Senate members of the faculty of GSE&IS and are expected to represent the interests of their faculty constituents. In addition to the Chair and the Chair-elect, the membership includes:

• Three Education Faculty elected by the Department of Education faculty (2 year terms);
• Two Information Studies Faculty elected by the Department of Information Studies faculty (2 year terms);
• Two Faculty members elected at large (2 year terms)

The FEC also includes the following non-voting members:

• The Dean, Associate Deans, and Department Chairs (ex officio);
• Two professional faculty members, one from each department;
• Two student representatives, one from each department.

Although the FEC formally represents the Senate Faculty, we consider it our responsibility to represent the interests of all faculty members of the School, without regard for their eligibility for Senate membership. Meetings are open to all members of the faculty.
