The Council was formed in early 2015 as a successor to the former Administrators Senate. The Administrators Council is a collaborative and representative body reporting to the Provost that advises and shares information with University Council and other administrative councils (the Deans Council and Chairs and Directors Assembly) and shared governance bodies (Faculty Senate, Staff Senate, Student Council), and is responsible for the implementation of shared governance decisions and policies among its constituents. In addition, the Administrators Council is also responsible for providing feedback on issues affecting administrators and their reports.
