Central Washington University, Academic Department Chairs Organization

The ADCO identifies, discusses, and influences issues that affect the faculty of the university and the academic units to which they belong. The group provides consultation and recommendations to the Provost and other individuals and university organizations. They interact with other university groups and professional organizations in order to enhance the efficient and effective operation of the academic units. Officers consist of a chair and a secretary. The chair calls meetings, establishes an agenda for each meeting, circulates the agenda, and attends the Deans’ Council as a representative of the organization; the secretary maintains and circulates minutes. Each school or college of the university has one representative on the Executive Committee.
