The University of Nevada, Reno Student Technology Fee Advisory Committee (STFAC) is a standing committee to review and advise on collection and use of the student technology fee. The committee reports jointly to the Dean of Libraries and the Vice President for Information Technology (VPIT) and Chief Information Officer (CIO). From time to time the committee may meet with the Provost.

The committee will meet at least once per semester. The committee will review and provide advice on proposed use of current fiscal year technology fee monies.
