ROLE AND SCOPE
The General Counsel provides legal oversight and advice on matters related to the University. As the in-house attorney for Stephen F. Austin State University, the General Counsel serves as a problem solver, legal trouble shooter, and adviser to the University, its Board of Regents, administration, faculty and staff, and others acting on the University's behalf. The General Counsel does not serve as anyone's personal attorney and acts only on the University's behalf. The General Counsel reports directly to the Board of Regents and provides day to day counsel to the administration and staff.
