Dean's advisory council

The Dean’s Advisory Council is comprised of a group of educational, business and non- profit leaders, and volunteers who work closely with the CEHD leadership to support the college through advocacy, engagement, and assistance with fundraising.

Meeting twice a year, the Advisory Council provides advice and counsel to the dean in efforts to maintain and enhance the reputation and stature of the college. Members also help with long-term planning and serve as critical links between the University and external constituencies.
