Advisory Committees

The Vice President for Student Affairs annually appoints and oversees three advisory committees focused on the topics of diversity, inclusion, and sexual misconduct to better understand and address student needs.

Two of the advisory committees, the Advisory Committee for Student Climate Related to LGBTQ Students and the Advisory Committee for Student Climate Related to Race and Ethnicity, are largely composed of students and designed to provide input about the Notre Dame campus climate, especially related to the topics of diversity and inclusion.

The third committee, the Committee on Sexual Assault Prevention (CSAP), offers advice and guidance on how to assist and support victims of sexual assault. This committee is comprised of faculty, staff, and students from the tri-campus community who work to understand and address sexual violence at Notre Dame, Saint Mary's College, and Holy Cross College.
