Academic Review Committee

Purpose

The purpose of the Academic Review Committee (ARC) was to carry forward the work of the Ad Hoc Committee on Faculty Resources and Budgeting for the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (also known as the “Nordhaus Committee”). The committee was charged by then-Provost Peter Salovey with reviewing “the allocation of faculty positions across divisions and departments” and with recommending any necessary changes in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS). This charge excluded the School of Engineering & Applied Science (SEAS) and the West Campus. The Provost also asked the ARC to follow up on recommendations of the Nordhaus Committee concerning the accounting and management of faculty positions.
