Advisory Board

The advisory board consists of various committees, which the members choose to be a part of during the first board meeting in the fall. These committees are responsible for strategic planning, fundraising, and a number of the Center's signature events. The committees include:

• Long Term/Strategic Planning Committee
• Friendraising Committee
• Women's Health and Wellness
• Unsung Heroines Committee
• Woman of Note Committee
• Student Advocacy Committee
• Emory Weekend Committee

Nominations for board members are due during the spring each year. Self-nominations are encouraged. Administration, staff and faculty are eligible to serve as members for a one year term and may be asked to serve for another term. Graduate and undergraduate students are eligible to serve as members for two one-year terms.
