Executive Committee Overview
The Crossing Borders Executive Committee meets twice each semester and manages the academic program. New seminars are proposed and approved, the performance of students in the program is assessed, and policy issues affecting funding, academic credit, details of registration, etc., are discussed.
Members of the committee include one or more representatives from the 12 participating departments—in most cases the Departmental Executive Officer and the departmental CB Mentor. Two CB Fellows also participate as non-voting members to represent student views and to articulate student reaction to faculty decisions.
