The Fiscal Operations Advisory Council (FOAC) is a joint council of faculty, administrative staff, and students for the purpose of advising the President on budget and financial matters.

FOAC will review the institution’s annual budget and advise the President on the development of new budget initiatives. As needed, FOAC will review and advise on the format for reporting the annual budget to the campus community. The Council will function as an integral group in strategic planning activities, with a university-wide perspective.
The council is composed of the Provost; Vice President of Finance and Administration; Vice Provost; Associate Vice President of Financial Operations and Controller; Associate Vice President of Student Affairs; one representative from Administrative Council; one representative from Faculty Senate Executive Committee; three university/administrative staff; four senior faculty; and the ASOIT Presidents.
