Institutional Committees
This website contains information about institutional committees that work on a variety of topics for Stockton University.
This list is meant to be comprehensive, but not necessarily exhaustive, and has been formulated based on three general criteria.
- The committee should be institutionally sanctioned
- The committee should be addressing ongoing issues rather than one-time issues
- The committee should be focused on matters internal to the University
For more information, or to request a committee to be added to this list please contact Peter Baratta.
