The commitments include two custom mandates.

The plan will also renew the contract of a manager currently on watch.
The selected firm will assume an $86 million mandate currently handled by an underperforming manager.
The plan committed a total of $20 million across private equity and real estate at its October board meeting.
The pension plan liquidated an international equity mandate and made $1.8 billion in total commitments in September.
The university was slated to approve a buyout private equity commitment to a new manager within its endowment at its meeting last week.
