Undergraduate representatives for Institute Committees selected

Undergraduate representatives for Institute Committees selected

The Undergraduate Association (UA) Council and Chair of the Faculty Steven Hall approved Institute Committees’ undergraduate representatives Sept. 25. These students were chosen through a “competitive selection process by the UA’s Nominations Board,” according to UA Chief of Staff Shruti Sharma ’15. MIT Institute Committees — which are run by the faculty or administration and include undergraduate and graduate representatives — address a variety of issues at MIT.

Student representatives are usually voting members and are intended to “ensure that interests of the student body are understood and acted upon by the committee,” according to the UA’s Institute Committee application document. Among the new Institute Committees this year is the Presidential Advisory Cabinet.
