Faculty Advisory Board for the Program for Writing and Communication (FAB-PWC)

Charge

The Faculty Advisory Board (FAB) will have an ongoing advisory role in all aspects of the Program for Writing and Communication (PWC), though final programmatic decisions will rest with the PWC Director. In order to ensure that the PWC is identifying and meeting the needs of the Rice community, the FAB will meet with the Director at least twice a year to provide support and consultation about the program.

Specific activities for this committee include:

• Reviewing PWC projects and sub-programs, including their relationship to other campus programs
• Suggesting projects, including assessments, the PWC might consider
• Reviewing strategic plans
• Advocating for the needs of the PWC at the university
• Sharing information about the PWC across campus
• Advising the PWC Director as requested
• Preparing a brief, written report on the activities of the committee at the end of each academic year and submitting copies of this report to the Faculty Senate.

Meetings

The FAB-PWC usually meets three times per semester, for an hour.
