Overview

At the level of the School of Arts and Sciences and the Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, various formal committees and more ad hoc arrangements exist to give faculty the opportunity to provide feedback and direction on academic policy and practice. Formal committees include those listed on the Faculty Committees page, which also lists each committee's formal charge. Recent ad hoc committees have focused on review of the Rochester Curriculum, evaluation of learning management systems, and usage of classrooms and common spaces in buildings (e.g., Rettner Hall). Many of the decisions made by committee members in academic and co-curricular affairs are informed by the College Rules below.
