# DRB Executive Committee Because of its unique character, the DRB has assembled an Executive Committee, a group of faculty and staff whose role is to promote integration of the DRB program across the four campuses and to ensure that the goals set forth by the DRB program are realized. This committee is the main sounding board for all DRB-related concerns.
