Areas of Responsibility

The AAC will formulate recommendations as well as assume responsibility for the work generated by the agenda. The AAC will address a broad array of university-wide academic planning, policy, and implementation issues and will make recommendations regarding those issues. Any issue that has an impact upon academic policy or delivery of instruction will be brought to the committee for consideration. Issues as diverse as technologies that support instruction or planning and implementation policies of new programs would fall within the purview of the AAC.

FAAP is a standing committee of Faculty Assembly and, therefore, FAAP representatives can bring necessary AAC items to Faculty Assembly, school representatives can bring AAC items to school meetings, and administrators and staff can bring AAC items back to their appropriate venues. AAC will have a report-out as a standing item on the University Council’s agenda. AAC will thereby be in communication with Faculty Assembly, the schools, and the University Council.
