Board of Advisors

The dean's Board of Advisors is a group of approximately 25 high-level public and private sector leaders invited by the dean to help the School reach its advancement goals in government and community relations, professional and industry relations, communications, and resource development. Members advise, advocate, and open doors on the School's behalf. They meet annually as a group and individually advise the dean and faculty members throughout the year.
