About This Council

The Campus Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC) advises the Vice President & Chief Administrative Officer on transportation issues. This includes the review of parking and mandatory student fee proposals, recommendations regarding Department of Transportation Services (DOTS) or other university policies that impact campus transportation, and the implementation of longstanding and/or emerging industry best practices. CTAC typically meets three to four times per semester during the academic year.

Voting members are appointed to CTAC by the University Senate or student stakeholder group leadership. There are seventeen voting members. The committee comprises ten representatives from the University Senate: three faculty, two exempt staff, two non-exempt staff, one Staff Affairs Committee member, one Campus Affairs Committee member, and one undergraduate student at-large. The Student Government Association, Graduate Student Government, and Residence Hall Association hold seven additional seats.

Elections for the Senate-elected seats are typically conducted at the Annual Transition Meeting of the Senate in early May. If you are interested in running for a position on CTAC, please contact the Senate Office at senate-admin@umd.edu for more information.
