The Chair or Faculty of the graduate group will suggest a primary advisor for each student according to the student's interests, with the expectation that the student will then select two additional committee members, again based on shared thematic or area interests. The faculty advisors will be responsible for working with the student and determining if the student has completed all program requirements.
