The New Students Committee is a standing (permanent) committee of GRACS.

The committee members are appointed at the beginning of each semester by the GRACS Executive Committee.

Any person who is enrolled in a UT computer science graduate program may serve on GRACS committees.

1. Make recommendations and handle tasks related to new CS graduate students.
2. Report to the GRACS Executive Committee at its meetings.
3. Not spend (nor commit to spend) money without the Treasurer's involvement.

• Either a regular meeting schedule should be agreed or each meeting should be called with some notice.
• Project committees don't have a pre-established meeting schedule, they can set their own.
• The committee chair (if one is named) or any two members may call a meeting.
• More than half of the committee membership constitutes a quorum. (Committee business can be conducted only with a quorum.)
