Program Council seeks new academic members

Dear Colleagues:

Are you an academic interested in learning more about ANR's budgetary decisions and processes? Would you like to have a direct voice to senior leadership? If so, you may be interested in serving on the ANR Program Council.

Academic Assembly Council is seeking self-nominations to serve on the ANR Program Council. The ANR Program Council advises the Vice President on Divisionwide planning and delivery of programs and develops recommendations for allocation of Division resources.

We are seeking academics with well-established programs, who can commit to monthly two-day, in-person meetings (scheduled dates below), most often held in Davis.

Attendance at all Program Council meetings is mandatory. Please note that Program Council does not have a budget to support full travel (meals during meetings are provided).

A list of all interested individuals will be sent to the Associate Vice President, who will review self-nominations with current ANR Program Council members on October 1-2to make the selection. We are seeking to fill two positions, both beginning January 2020.

To express your interest, please complete the survey at https://ucanr.edu/survey/survey.cfm?surveynumber=28242 by Sept. 27. If you have already completed the survey, your self-nomination will be reviewed in October as well.
