"In March, 2002, President Graham established the Planning Steering Committee, chaired by Dr. Ronald Slepitza... The committee involved 23 members of the faculty, administration, staff and student body.... Under Slepitza's direction, a whole set of task forces...launched out in several directions... The groups included the Library Planning Committee, Teaching, Learning and Technology Committee, Career Development and Lifelong Learning Committee and 7 others. Over time a smaller work group weaved together the various individual reports into a more coherent whole." (Fortin's history of Xavier, pages 380-381) The committee was charged with "the responsibility of overseeing the university's multiple activities... with respect to planning". (Fortin, page 380) Each of the committee's task forces had its own specific charge which can be found in the final report of each task force.
