IPD Subcommittees
All members of IPD are expected to serve on a subcommittee. Appointments to subcommittees are made during the first scheduled meeting of the Fall semester. When possible, the Chair of the subcommittee will have served the previous year as a subcommittee member. Two subcommittees have restrictions on their membership: Sabbatical Leave and Alternative Methods/Overload Release Time as IPD members submitting proposals for consideration cannot serve on these subcommittees.
