HEALY HALL – Senior Vice President of Administrative Coordination & Efficiency Bennet Hughes announced today the creation of a redundant task force that will seek out ways to improve efficiency with Georgetown’s generally redundant bureaucracy. “The task force will be tasked with reducing inefficiency and practices that are not optimally designed and will encompass a wide range of actors,” said Hughes. He indicated that three separate committees would take on redundancy within administration of student groups and that to accomplish this task, 14 new vice president positions would be created to oversee a new efficiency department housed in the President’s office. “I welcome a much needed effort to clear out unnecessary and confusing positions,” said Assistant Vice President for Business Process Integration Coordination and Things, Leslie Alderman. Although the Redundancy Task Force has projected its report will not be issued for decades, in the meantime Georgetown has announced a project to spend $10 million to investigate ways to reduce tuition.
