Dean's Advisory Board
The College of Liberal Arts Advisory Board was established in 1995, to enhance the relationship between the CLA and its constituents. In 2003, Dean Linda H. Halisky made further revisions to make better use of the college's supporters, donors, and volunteers; to address the increased need for targeted fundraising; and to respond to the specific needs and wishes of individual deparments and their supporters. The Dean's Advisory Board meets twice a year in joint sessions with the Dean's Council.
