In September of 1961, President Pitzer called for an ad-hoc committee on the development of the graduate program which would discuss the future organization and development of the graduate program, while the Committee on Graduate Instruction would continue to adminsiter graduate affairs within current policies. The ad-hoc committee was dissolved in March, 1962; and July 1st, 1962, the Graduate Council superseded the Committee on Graduate Instruction. The duties of the Graduate Council include recommending general policies on graduate study, interpreting these policies and establishing procedures to implement them as required.
