About Us
Board of Governors
In addition to members from the broader community, at St. Jerome’s University faculty, staff and students are members of our Board of Governors, thereby ensuring that multiple and varied perspectives are considered. Furthermore, meetings held by the Board of Governors are open to the public, enabling them to be informed about the decisions made by the institution.
The Board of Governors is responsible for overseeing and directing the administration and management of the University’s property, revenues, and financial affairs.

The Board of Governors has up to 22 members including the Chancellor, the President (Vice Chancellor) of the University, the Provincial Superior of the Congregation of the Resurrection, the Episcopal Delegate, two faculty members, one staff member, one student member, and up to 12 members at large.
