GRADUATE CABINET

The Graduate Cabinet, an informal body comprised of the graduate associate deans of the schools and colleges, the chairs of departments, directors of graduate programs and representatives of The Graduate School, convenes a few times each semester in order to discuss important issues relevant to graduate education. Although the Cabinet has no bylaws or legislative authority, its discussions contribute greatly to the excellence of the University.

Topics of past meetings have included:

  • "Alumni Development" led by Mary Woolson, Associate Vice President for Development
  • "Leadership Workshop" led by Dr. Brent Ruben, Director of the Center for Organizational Development & Leadership, Rutgers University
  • "Career and Professional Development" with a panel representing the Career & Development Center, Center for Quality, Technology Training Center and Library Services
  • "Sharing Best Practices About Recruitment" led by Dean Nancy Stamp
