Advisory Consortium

A consortium is a group formed to undertake an endeavor beyond the means of any one member. The Advisory Consortium assists the Steering Committee for the Bert & Phyllis Lamb Prize in Political Science by providing advice and guidance on how best to present information about the Prize to faculty and undergraduates. This is an endeavor that is best performed by many people working together to help improve communication about the Prize. Although the Advisory Consortium has no role in selecting prize winners, the members provide important advice to assist the Steering Committee in managing the Prize.
