Anouck Girard, professor of robotics and of aerospace engineering in the College of Engineering, will serve as a temporary member of the Senate Advisory Committee on University Affairs starting Oct. 9.
Girard is joining the nine-member executive arm of the University of Michigan’s central faculty governance system to temporarily replace Lindsay Admon, assistant professor of obstetrics and gynecology in the Medical School, who is on maternity leave.
Girard will serve as a SACUA member through Jan. 22, 2024.
Senate Assembly members voted to elect Girard via electronic ballot. She was the top vote-getter in the election that also included Jessica Pasquale, assistant director for scholarly publishing and information services at the Law Library.
The Senate Assembly consists of 77 elected faculty members from the Ann Arbor, Dearborn and Flint campuses.
