Dean’s
Advisory Board
The Dean’s Advisory Board (DAB) is a group of committed alumni and friends who promote excellence in the college. Members serve as advocates and advisors in support of the college’s students, faculty, staff, and administration and work at all times in a collaborative fashion with its leadership.
The Dean’s Advisory Board achieves its mission by:
- Providing advice and counsel to the dean and his or her staff
- Remaining informed of the college’s trends, programs, and needs, both academic and administrative
- Advocating for and contributing to funding of the college in support of its critical role as the academic core of the university
- Engaging with other key stakeholders to show support for the college’s strategic plan and vision
- Supporting the college’s mission
Members of the Dean’s Advisory Board are expected to engage in several activities critical to the success of the missions of both the Dean’s Advisory Board and the college. These activities include attending biannual board meetings, financially supporting the college, and providing strategic introductions for the dean and college administrators that help the college grow.
