Academic Department Chair Council
The Council provides academic department chairs with opportunities for collaboration and communication to, from, and among each other. It also provides a forum for ongoing professional development and training opportunities. The Vice Provost, Dr. Clifton Jones, provides administrative support for the Council and can be reached at clifton.jones@angelo.edu.
Responsible Office: Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs
Membership
The Department Chair Council consists of the academic department chairs from the departments within each academic college.
Chair and Vice Chair Appointments
There are two officer positions on the Council: the Chair and the Vice Chair. These positions are elected by the Council, and each serves a one-year term. The Vice Chair presides in the Chair’s absence and assumes the Chair position for the subsequent year. Elections will be held at the end of the academic year (at the May meeting).
| Position | Name |

Meetings
Meetings will take place once a month during the academic year (September-May). The Council Chair may call a special meeting if warranted. The location of the meetings and the exact dates and times will be determined by the Council. Meeting minutes will be recorded by the Vice Chair and submitted to the Vice Provost no later than 10 business days after the meeting. The Curriculum and Policy Coordinator in the Provost’s Office, Ms. Christena Parks, will upload the minutes to SharePoint before the next month’s meeting.
Agenda Requirements
The Chair Council members should make every effort to request items be placed on the agenda before noon on the business day preceding the regularly scheduled meeting.
