POLICY STATEMENT
THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA AT BIRMINGHAM
DIVISION OF STUDENT AFFAIRS

Subject: University Programming Council

Source: Office of Student Life

1. The University Programming Council exists as a means to facilitate cooperative program planning among, and between the program committees established by the PAB, to provide a forum for information exchanges, to create a mechanism for sharing resources, and to assist in planning programs that are responsive to the interests of a multicultural student body.
   
   
2. The Council shall be comprised of the chairpersons of each PAB Program Committee. Given the fact that some committees are inactive for a large portion of the academic year, the staff adviser may represent the interests of that committee on the Council. Representatives of other student organizations/programming bodies will be invited to attend Council meetings as appropriate.  
   
   
3. The Council shall be chaired by the Assistant Director of Student Involvement or designate.
   
   
4. The Council shall hold, at a minimum, one meeting each month to discuss issues at hand. This shall normally be near the beginning of the term so as to inform groups about activities scheduled for that term. 
   
   
5. The Council shall be responsible for periodically surveying the UAB student body to determine the impact of PAB programs/activities.
   
   
6. The Council will establish guidelines for evaluating sponsored programs and activities.
