Forestry Executive Committee (FEC)
The FEC Meetings are open to any College of Forestry member. However, there are occasional agenda
topics which are titled “Executive Session”. The Executive
sessions are only open to Executive Committee members and deal with Human Resource
or personnel issues which require confidentiality.
Because of the need for the FEC to be responsive to issues as they present themselves; agendas
may be revised and updated right up to the meeting time.
