6 Members (2025-2026)
 

The Committee on Budget and Development (six elected members) shall confer with the Senior Associate Dean for Strategy, Finance, and Planning and the Senior Director of Budget and Finance, who are ex-officio non-voting members, to understand the University financial environment and provide advice, ideas, and input on Arts & Sciences resource allocation decisions aligned with strategic priorities. Committee input and feedback is intended to foster faculty awareness and engagement in a robust and inclusive annual budget development process. At least one of the meetings will include leaders from the College Foundation who will provide an overview of philanthropic plans, priorities, and fundraising campaign progress. The Committee will discuss financial matters with the faculty through the Arts & Sciences All School Meeting, town hall sessions, visits to departmental faculty meetings, or other appropriate venues.
