Outreach and Engagement Council
Outreach and Engagement Council
The Outreach and Engagement Council is a permanent body appointed by President M. Duane Nellis in late 2009.It is chaired by the Coordinator for Outreach and Engagement, Priscilla Salant. The OEC replaced UI’s Strategic Action Team for Outreach and Engagement, created in August, 2006. The OEC members include at least one representative from every college as well as representatives from the University Research Office, two regional Centers, Extension, and other outreach arms of the university.The OEC has three primary responsibilities.
- The OEC advises the President, Provost, President’s Cabinet, and Provost Council on internal policies, procedures, and support services to foster outreach and engagement across our statewide system.
- The OEC builds relationships between people involved in the University’s diverse outreach and engagement activities.
- The OEC serves as a resource and sounding board for efforts such as Strategic Innovations, thus helping relevant faculty and staff make connections to work across disciplines and functions.
