CREM Committee

As guided by BOT-25, the CREM committee advocates for the needs of faculty, staff, and students impacted by the creation, reorganization, elimination, and/or merger of academic programs and units on the Bloomington campus. It consults with units that are thinking of initiating a CREM or are being forced to go through a CREM.  

2026-2027 Assignments

  1. As described in BOT-25, send representatives to ad hoc CREM committees in order to hear the concerns of impacted faculty and bring them to the attention of the administration.
  2. Discuss CREM-related trends on the IUB campus such as timelines, procedures, common concerns, etc.
  3. Develop a campus-level policy to guide CREMs within the scope of BOT-25, including the purpose and limits of the CREM committee and technical work that is needed to fully manage a CREM (such as changing course designations in CARMIN, transferring FTEs, negotiating staff titles and responsibilities, evaluating donor intent for endowments, etc.).
  4. Collaborate with the Student Academic Appointee Affairs Committee (SAAAC) to gauge the impact of reorganizations and mergers on SAAs.
