Biographical / historical:

The University Management Committee (UMC) provides input and makes decisions on a variety of management issues affecting the University, all toward the purpose of furthering the University's mission. UMC considers policies, procedures, and matters related to managing the University while respecting the fact that the primary responsibility for managing the institution and its employees rests with the individual University managers. Among other things, UMC specifically reviews and adopts University policies, fee requests, and charge-back requests; reviews employment matters that affect large groups of University employees; and ensures operational projects to not unnecessarily impact academic or student services. Former committee members include Andrew K. Benton, William B. Adrian, Nancy Fagan, Larry Hornbaker, Steve Lemley, D'Esta Love, Jeff Pippin, Mary Ann Rice, Chip Moore, Bob Thomas, John Wilson, George Heider, and Shirley Roper.
