Building on the recommendations from the Advising Task Force, the Advising Software Committee has been charged with engaging with stakeholders across Grounds to identify a software platform that can be used for undergraduate advising across the University.
Committee Timeline
2022 Advising Initiative
Our vision, as articulated in The 2030 Plan, is to “ensure that students receive the advising and support they need to thrive on Grounds and beyond.” The Advising Task Force was convened to closely examine undergraduate advising at the University in order to understand where we are, where we aspire to be, and how we may reach our aspirations. The Task Force Report articulates a vision for undergraduate advising and a set of recommendations to realize our aspirations.
