College Budget Officers

The College Budget Officers forum consists of the senior budget/finance officer from each of the 12 academic colleges and the major administrative units within the Division of Academic Affairs, as well as the Division of Research. The meetings provide an opportunity to share relevant information, discuss the impact of new and changing policies, share best practices, solve problems and meet with campus administrative leaders to discuss new initiatives and issues of mutual interest and concern.

CBO forum occurs on the first Thursday of every month, unless otherwise rescheduled due to conflicts.
