The George Mason University Board of Visitors approved several measures and welcomed five new members to its ranks at its meeting Wednesday.

“Things went very smoothly,” said Peter Pober, the chair of Mason’s Faculty Senate. “The meeting was very productive.”

The Board approved the formation of the Office of Global Strategy, which will act as a liaison between Mason and various international institutions, Pober said.
