University Steering Committee

UMBC’s University Steering Committee oversees our shared governance process and consists of executives from all of our shared governance groups. The USC establishes rules insuring the proper coordination of the five Senates (SGA, GSA, NESS, PSS and Faculty Senate). It also represents the interests of our shared governance groups to UMBC Administration, the University System of Maryland Administration, and the Board of Regents. In addition, the USC is responsible for periodically reviewing and making proposals to the five Senates to improve our shared governance processes and structures and has the authority to call emergency meetings of the Senates.
