Southern IPM Center Committees
The Center has two standing committees:
The Advisory Council (AC) consists of a diverse array of stakeholders
from across the region. AC members provide strong communications links between SRIPMC and
stakeholder groups as well as among various stakeholder groups. The AC is an important avenue
for promoting two-way communications. The Advisory Council meets twice each year to review Center
progress, suggest priorities and otherwise advises Center staff and the Steering Committee, which
sets policy.
The Steering Committee (SC) consists of approximately twelve voting
members and ten non-voting members and meets semi-annually. The Steering Committee provides
guidance for executive decisions and administrative management, determines how to implement
policies from Advisory Council, and determines the application of priorities to Center efforts
through the selection of activities that promote the focus areas recommended by the Advisory
Council.
Ad hoc committees and working groups may be appointed from time to time by the Advisory Council
or the Steering Committee. Volunteers are encouraged to contact
center staff. As of June 2005, we have the following active committees:
AC committee to investigate solicitation of support funds
SC committee to develop a workshop for 1890 Land Grant Universities
AC committee on development of SRIPMC priorities and strategies
