Academic Affairs: Roster of Councils, Committees, and Teams

General Statement

The Councils and Committees listed in the following pages have been constituted under long-standing administrative guidelines as summarized in the Faculty Handbook. Councils are, for the most part, continuing groups, while committee appointments will be made on a year-to-year basis.

Committee members, and especially committee chairs, are expected to familiarize themselves with the policies contained in UPPS No. 01.04.04, "Open Meetings of University Committees to Members of the Press and Public.

Committee Membership

Texas State University has adopted the usage of gender-neutral language that circumvents bias and prejudice towards a particular sex or social gender. As such, monikers such as Ms., Mr., and Dr. are no longer included on the University Roster when addressing faculty, staff, and students.

All appointments of committee, council, and team members should be assigned a T, if membership is determined by title or R, if membership representing an area/department/division. All changes to a particular committee/council/team must be directed to the Provost Office.
