University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Faculty Council. University Priorities Committee.

The University Priorities Committee was created in 1970 as an ad hoc committee of the faculty; later that year it became a standing committee. Appointed by the chair of the faculty, the University Priorities Committee is charged with studying the progress of the university towards its goals and making reports to the Faculty Council. The committee also works with the administration and other groups within the university, particularly the Planning Council, toward the achievement of goals set by the Faculty Council.
