The Universitywide Natural Reserve System Advisory Committee is appointed by the President of the University. It consists of a chairperson, an academic representative from each of the nine general campuses, two at-large positions, two Managers/Coordinators representatives, one alternate Managers/Coordinators representative, a Stewards representative, and the executive director of the NRS. Members serve on a rotating basis. The committee meets bi-annually to advise the President on the policies, progress, and status of the system and its administration, and provides diverse perspectives on the integration of the NRS into the University’s teaching and research programs.
