The Group Insurance Committee was convened at North Carolina State College in or before 1951 to address insurance and retirement topics for faculty and staff employees of the college. The committee has changed names several times: in 1955, it became the Committee on Group Insurance and Faculty Welfare; in 1977, the Group Insurance and Welfare Committee; and in 1989 adopted the current name of Group Insurance & Benefits Committee. A member of the committee has also reported to the University of North Carolina (UNC) System-wide insurance and benefits group since at least the mid-1970s, incorporating the recommendations of that group into decisions made locally for NC State employees. As of 2010, the purpose of the Group Insurance & Benefits Committee remains to act in an advisory role to the North Carolina State University Benefits Office on all matters of insurance, retirement, and benefits for university employees.
