The Committee on Committees met on May 21 and May 29, 2012 to review all of the committee volunteers and their statements. The Committee on Committees had 102 membership openings to fill on the regular standing committees of the Senate, and 275 volunteers from the various constituencies on campus. The committee endeavored to create balanced standing committee memberships, representing a variety of colleges, disciplines, constituencies, and gender. The committee selected faculty, staff, and students volunteers to fill the open positions. The committee members used the volunteers' top three choices from their preference form to place them onto respective committees. The Committee on Committees members were assigned responsibilities for further recruitment as needed.
The Senate Office and the Chair of the Committee on Committees worked together to fill committee vacancies that arose following the meetings throughout the summer.
