COMMITTEES

With the assistance of the College’s Executive Leadership Committee, committee charges and reporting responsibilities have been updated and focused, based upon our upcoming ACPE accreditation site visit in the Fall of 2009.  In addition, formal program review of our graduate programs will occur in the near future. 

The committee assignments for 2007-08 include a description of the function of each committee, the academic year (AY) 2007-2008 charges for the committee and a requirement for each committee to meet monthly and maintain minutes of each meeting (an ACPE requirement).  In addition, each committee will submit an annual report using the attached format (Appendix A) by July 15, 2008. 

ACPE Standard #7 relates to college organization and governance and notes that committees must be part of the system of governance of the college.  Committees should be established to address key components of the mission and goals and minutes of committee actions should be maintained and communicated to appropriate parties.

At our retreat in January 2007 and since that time, the College has developed a comprehensive organization plan with goals in the areas of education, research and scholarship, pharmacy practice and professional service, advancement and administration and infrastructure.  To focus our efforts on these five areas, an Organization, Planning and Evaluation Committee (OPEC) has been formed from the old Assessment Task Force, Research Strategic Planning committee and the Strategic Planning committee.
