The HRAC is an advisory body. Its charge is to advise the Associate Vice President for Human Resources on strategic issues that affect or may affect the human resources of the University. These may include issues arising in such areas as salary and benefits administration, performance management, human resource policies and procedures, diversity management, and equal employment opportunity. The Committee may be called upon to help identify emerging trends for which the University may need to develop strategies in order to take proactive measures. However, the work of the Committee shall coordinate with, but not duplicate, the work of the Fringe Benefits Advisory Committee.

The primary purpose of the Fringe Benefits Advisory Committee (FBAC) is to advise University Administration on all aspects of the university's fringe benefits program. Mindful of the need for good stewardship, the FBAC reviews, monitors, and proposes changes to the fringe benefits program based on general market data and those from similar academic institutions. The committee also serves as a communication link among staff, faculty, and Administration.
