Since 1997, the IPRH Advisory Committee has included between six and eight tenured faculty members from a wide variety of disciplines, with a strong effort made to guarantee that each year’s committee represents a broad range of disciplinary backgrounds. The Advisory Committee is appointed by the Director and Associate Director. Advisory Committee members serve two-year terms, with the terms staggered so that each year’s committee is comprised of both new and returning members. Advisory Committee members participate in the review of fellowships applications and the designation of the awards; they may be asked to contribute suggestions for the annual theme and keynote speakers for the annual conference.

Since the establishment of the IPRH in 1997, the Advisory Committee members have come from more than twenty departments representing the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the College of Fine and Applied Arts, the College of Communications, the School of Medicine, and the Graduate School of Library and Information Science.
