Purpose and Responsibilities

The Convocations Committee helps foster a lively intellectual, artistic, and cultural life at the College. Individuals or groups may propose events and seek funding from the Convocations Committee based on the annual budget allocated by the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost. Student organizations requesting funds should do so with the approval and guidance of their advisor. Additionally, the Committee will review submissions for Attaway Fellows and Scholars and allocate Attaway funds accordingly.  

The campus reserves the first Thursday of each month (excluding December, January, and May) during the academic year from 11:10 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. as the Convocation Hour.

Composition

The Committee will be composed of three faculty members recommended by the Faculty Coordinating Council and one student recommended by the Student Government Association approved by the College President; a representative from Marketing and Communications (ex officio); a representative from Student Involvement (ex officio); and the Vice President for Academic Affairs/Provost or designee (ex officio). One faculty member will be elected to serve as committee chairperson.
