How many individuals should an institution appoint to its steering committee?
The certification handbook does not recommend a specific number, but does indicate that four individuals are required (i.e., chief executive officer, faculty athletics representative, athletics director, senior woman administrator), with a possible fifth individual being the chief executive officer’s designee. If an institution appoints four more individuals to chair subcommittees, that results in a count of nine. Most important, an institution has the flexibility to structure its self-study steering committee any way it wishes to ensure balance, broad-based participation and that the work can be completed.
