äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ Committees serve Vanderbilt as a whole, in contrast with committees within the schools or certain specialized committees within administrative units.
Invitations to membership on these standing äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ Committees are extended in writing by the Chancellor.
All committees have at least two categories of membership: faculty and ex officio/administrative. Some have student members, and some have particular requirements, such as alumni representation or citizen members not affiliated with Vanderbilt.
Nominations for faculty positions are made by the Consultative Committee of the Faculty Senate. The Committee calls for faculty volunteers each year and also seeks the advice of Deans, committee chairs, and administrative officers in making its recommendations. The Consultative Committee in submitting nominations for membership to the Chancellor may also recommend faculty for committee chairs when positions are open.
Ex officio/administrative members on äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ Committees include (a) persons who are automatically members by virtue of the position held, and (b) persons necessary to the committee by virtue of special knowledge or experience. In the latter cases, the äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ officer to whom the committee reports assists the Chancellor by making nominations.
The current committees and their charges are listed in alphabetical order in the following section. Membership requirements and membership lists are on file in the Office of the Chancellor.
