Faculty Success Council
The Office of the Provost has established a Faculty Success Council to bring colleges and schools together in a collective, campus wide effort to discuss and make changes for better faculty success on campus. The Faculty Success Council’s purpose is to support faculty members holistically, not only for research and/or teaching but also for service, leadership, engagement and outreach, and wellbeing. The Council meets regularly during the academic year, engages in discussions with their unit’s leadership team and faculty members, and helps facilitate programming, initiatives, and/or supports in their unit related to faculty success. The Dean from each unit appoints a representative to serve on the Council.
