The Steering Committee makes policy decisions about the program and, through subcommittees, carries out the operations of GSWS. The SC is composed of all full-time teaching faculty in the program, graduate students, undergraduates, and affiliated faculty who are elected to membership, and representatives of allied organizations who serve as non-voting members. SC members serve three-year terms, renewable in perpetuity. The work of the Steering Committee is guided by the GSWS By-Laws.
