The Director of FAA is an advocate for student opinion and ensures that student voice is represented on fourteen different Faculty councils, and at different levels of the University of Washington Administration where ASUW has a representative.

It is also the responsibility of the Director of FAA to be informed of institutional changes that affect Academia, the Cost of Education and Student Life. The Director of FAA serves on many different University committees, Faculty councils and ASUW committees. The Director is one of two Board liaisons to the Student Senate and also sits on the Legislative Steering Committee, is the Graduate and Professional Student Senate Liaison, sits on GPSS Executive Committee and chairs the Course Fee Review Committee that was created in 2003. The primary objective and goal of the Director of Faculty, Administration and Academic Affairs is to be an influential ASUW student advocate and liaison across the greater University of Washington campus.
