Administrators and Administrative Committees
The Department is administered by members of the faculty and a staff of
full- and part-time office personnel.
The Chair is nominated, by faculty vote, to the Vice President of Arts
and Sciences, on whose recommendation the President of the University
appoints the Chair. The usual term is three years.
A Director of Graduate Studies (DGS) is appointed by the Chair. The DGS
appoints other faculty to help administer the graduate program: an
Associate.
Director, Placement Officer, and members of the
CGE. (Advanced students in Comparative Literature are supervised by the
Institute for Comparative Literature and Society.)
The Committee on Guidance & Evaluation (CGE) is responsible for the
general academic review of all students in the Department. With the DGS
as chair, it takes up individual petitions and problems, as well as
larger issues of policy and planning. Members of the Committee are
chosen to reflect a wide range of academic interests.
The Graduate Student Council (GSC), which includes all graduate
students, nominates 2 or 3 student members to attend CGE meetings,
except when issues concerning individual students are to be discussed.
They have a voice in the discussion but no vote.
